I really like all the little bubbles you were able to capture in this one shot. The crop of the image also goes well with that cone of vegtable oil at the bottom
I love the detail you able to capture in this shot. I would love to see the other photos you got!
Based on your original (and edited) image, you did a really good job avoiding reflections, allowing us to have a clear view of what is actually happening. Nice!
I like the separation of liquids.
I think the bubbles in this image that are the result of the oil and water mixture make the image very unique.
I really enjoyed the color saturation here and you made the giant number of bubbles work in your favor really well! Like I mentioned in the critique, the form and colors in your image really evoke an apocalyptic volcano scene for me.
The bubbles do a pretty good job of showing the effect, even without a distinct boundary layer.
Really cool shot, definitely looks very alien and extreme. It reminds me of a computer render with all of the bubbles!
It’s cool how you were able to capture the initial moments of forming the vortex.
I love that you can see the bubbles up close. It reminds me of a lava lamp and the dispersion of the bubbles throughout the vegetable oil is very interesting.
