Are you using a different ferro-fluid than I’m used to? this one is a lot less fluid and a lot more ferro. It looks really unique, and I’m curious to learn more.
I like the cropping on your image, it kind of looks like a super dystopian Bikini Bottom!
This really reminds me of a futuristic city skyline, nice job!
The color that you added gives your image a unique look.
I like that this image appears to be solid, yet it is still a flow visualization.
Cool shot. Why is it blue?
Taking the photo from the side is a great decision to show the phenomena. It looks like a city.
As mentioned above, the shapes created with this ferrofluid are especially interesting/unique.
Your picture looks like a distorted city skyline and has a really ominous presence. I like the angle you used t take the picture as well as the contrast between the plate and the ferrofluid.
Really nice shot, it reminds me of a city skyline! Nice visualization of the more unusual ferrofluid
I like how it looks like a skyline of city, with skyscrapers jetting out of the city streets. It’s really cool to know that this is fluid because it looks so jagged and course, not the smooth and round surface tension effects that we normally think of with liquid such as water.
I like how unique and jagged the shapes are. Its a cool way to visualize the normal field instability
