In a petri dish we mixed india ink on the outside of ferrofluid and then we dropped some ink over the fluid. In this instance we placed 3 magnets underneath the petri dish so the magnetic field is experienced through the ferrofluid and clearly depicted.The process was the same but in this case we mixed more dies together and used 4 magnets beneath the petri dish. Finally, this trial only had one magnet beneath it.
I like the last image and how you can see the different colors starting to blend together. In the first image, I like how the yellow ink provides a highlighted separation between the black spikes.
Stunning use of magnetism to show the interaction with ferrofluid. The hexagonal packing effect with the india ink in the first image is quite beautiful.

I like the hexagonal shapes in the first image. Would you happen to know if this is because of the increased magnetic field strength?

I like the top image, it reminds me of a sunflower
I like the featured image a lot, it reminds me of a sunflower.
Love the three different images, so colorful.
I enjoy how organic this image looks. Very well done.
The clarity of these photos are amazing!
This image is super crisp. I love the color juxtaposition as well!
This makes me think of a bee’s eyes
These are beautiful photos, great choice of colors.
