I added blue food coloring to rubbing alcohol and then drenched candle wax with that alcohol. I then placed this wax and alcohol mix in a glass bowl and wrapped my led strip around the bowl, setting the light settings to a dark blue. I then set the mixture on fire and took photos of what I saw. This particular photo is taken when the wax began to solidify after the flame was put out.

I like the set up that you have here and the color choices I think that its a really interesting choice!
Very nice image, Axel! I really dig the alien-other-world-surface vibe you have going here! I think you did a good job with framing with your image, and captured some very intriguing colors!
This is a very cool effect!
The unedited picture especially reminds me of icebergs. Very interesting shot.
awesome post processing!
I really like the light rings that formed around the solidified wax. I also really like the color. The image reminds me of deep ocean creatures and it looks really cool.
Very interesting setup for this photo! I like how it looks like bacteria under a microscope
