Reminds me of matlab topographic mapping, super cool. Displays physics very well!
Good job with the lightning. The silhouette of the hand with the bright glow around the fingers has really good contrast.
This is a nice work. Wondering how it would look if different fluid has been used.
I like that you can clearly see the blue tones and the yellow tones that you originally used, and how they combine to show the green that is prevalent throughout the photo.
I like how the hand is black it reminds me of the schlieren imaging technique. Very cool aesthetically pleasing image.
The effect of this image is really impressive. I never would have though of something like this, and the image looks great.
I like how this exemplifies the effect of surface tension. I wonder how it would look different with a fluid other than water.
