This is a photo of the flow resulting from a magnet being moved near a ferro fluid that is mixed with several different colors of India ink.

I love the colors and focus. Really beautiful image. Great job!
I like the choice of colors.
I how there is a variety of details left of the inner circle. The flow itself looks like a beautiful planet from far away.
I love the yellow circle with the black ferrofluid sticking through. The picture reminds me of the sun with a solar flare off to the side. It’s hard to narrow down one thing I like about this picture because there’s so much going on!
The orange parts remind me of a latte. The black color on the periphery reminds me of an eclipse corona. This is a very well-focused image.
This image looks organic. The colors used are very complementary. I also enjoyed how you took an areal shot of the phenomena.
Would you try cropping the circular colored part of the image? I love the flow patterns visualized in the “Jupiter-esque” portion
This kind of reminds me of a diagram of an eye, and the colors you chose make it stand out a lot.
I like the effect of the ink dripping off of the magnet lump.
I like that you added ink to the ferro fluid.
Great focus! You can really see the entire interaction and I like the use of the white background.
This is interesting. Looks like an alien form!
I like the choice of colors, it reminds me of some sort of illustration of thermal flares off of the sun.
The image is very crisp and good looking. Your image demonstrates the movement of the flow very well.
I love your color choice! I also think keeping the top of the cup/glass adds to the image rather than distracting from it. I think it helps frame the fluid movement.
I like the fact that you included the glass in the picture.
I love how you can see the motion coming away from where the magnet is. The photo has some really nice crisp focus, and great vibrant colors.
Very nice! I like the ink shows the flow patterns very clearly
