Water drops from a towel showing the fluid’s tendency to flow along a surface, showcasing surface tension, until it reaches a local minimum. It then breaks its surface tension due to the velocity it has, gravity, and the flow that’s pushing it from right behind.

I find this reminiscent of stalactite formation in caves, where mineral-saturated water drips from the cave’s “ceiling” to build up stalactites. And I really like your choice of green lighting, it looks like a bioluminescent green.
Beautiful demonstration of the fluid physics in this photo. I also enjoyed the green tint used in this photo, it adds an aesthetically pleasing element to the photo.
Great image. I like your choice of lighting color. It gives the image a cold arctic feel.
This reminds me of photographs from the deep arctic oceans from the green colors.
The surface tension holding the water to the towel is brilliant. What sort of lighting was used to take the photo?
This image reminds me of being inside a cave.
I like the coloring. I wish there was a slightly less distracting background.
I like how green light was used
Woah, it looks like a reflection on climate change! Look like the ice bergs are melting. Love.
Love the color theme of green in this image! Really calms me in a way.
I like the lighting in this photo that is providing the green tint to everything.
I love the comparison in the image of the to different drop structures one of rapid drops and the others with a single curving stream.
great demonstrating of how water goes to a local minimum before it drops. I also like your choice of green color which gave the image an interesting look.
If the background had been a little lighter, that could possibly bring out some contrast between the water falling and the background. I think this image displays the surface tension of the water very well.
This reminds me of water dripping from ice in the winter time. Off of icicles
I love how you can clearly see the thin layer of water rushing down the side of the towel. It really brings out the surface tension of water against the towel.
I like the use of the green light. This reminds me of night vision>
This reminds me of the videos of towels being squeezed in space:

I love how you captured the motion of the water and the towel. I think this image would also make a superb video as well. Great image!
I like the green it feels like i’m in the deep rain forest.
I like the green lighting/coloring to the picture, it gives a fun artistic feel I think.
Is the towel green or did you manipulate the colors in editing after the fact? I think the green was a good choice because it almost looks like a plant at first and not fabric.
Is there another part of the towel that is in dimmer light? Or is the towel in focus reflected in a mirror?
