Great idea to excite the fluid using a woofer. I really like the use of lighting and shadows to show the slight spiral effect of the droplet, it dramatizes the reaction of the woofer vibrating the fluid. Good use of red dye on a light background. It was probably pretty tough capturing this close-up image in good focus, but you captured two jets very well. Yours looks like an alien coming out of red jell-o too. Nice job!
Amazing definition and focus on the fluid. The flow is interesting. Great contrast and lighting.
A cool example of fluid dynamics but the poor image quality if a major detraction for me. I do like the bright cool background you achieved with post processing however. That was a good decision and contrasts well with the red in the fluid.
The size of the image is quite the sight to behold given that I have sen its original size. I am deeply impressed by how the image gets more into focus with the top part of the image. I would have liked to see the liquid be a different color and possibly be a different form than the previous one,s but this is still a very enjoyable and engaging image. The artistic merit, I would say, is how it resembles an alien blob with eye stalks. This is a very unique image. While a wouldn’t say it is perfect, it is a fun image to look at and engage yourself in.
Image is a little blurry, but I like the choice to make the background more white. It gives it a nice contrast. Definitely love the alien goo theme!
Again, I think this image could be a little more resolved. T hat could be achomplished by taking the photo closer or by using a tri-pod. If the whole flow could be in focus, it would be awesome!
The white background contrasts well with the red fluid!
I like how one drop is in focus and the back drop is out of focus. it keeps my eyes flicking back to the initial drop. Looks like the snail statue down on pearl street in the little kids section
Like the white background, brings the focus to the center. Good choice in color, the red makes the image look very dramatic.
The red color of the water is complimented very well with the white background. The photo turned out well!
There is nice vignette effect on the image. The main drops also have a little bit of a translucent effect. ISO is appears a little high, possibly set it a bit lower in future images.
The contrast is good! The light is good but the focus needs some work. The physics are clear !
Nice capture of fluid phenomena, really like how it looks like alien antennas.
I like the pink shades hidden in the fluid. Also the contrast is well done and the lighting works well.
Nice clean photo, the white background is really nice! Very nice photo!
