Hey there Stella!
Great image! I love the reflection you decided to keep within the flow! I think you did a great job selecting your aperture setting to get shallow depth of field. It really brings out the flow in the image! Good job!
I really like the focus on the ferrofluid itself, with a large contrast on the blurred background. I think that this contrast really enhances the image and helps highlight the fluid phenomenon occurring in the image.
I like the sharpness of this image. Was the clarity of the fluid flow and the contrast with the blurred background all done in post photo editing or was it completed on site with the camera settings?
I love the reflections that are in this image, I think it shows some of the properties of the fluid quite well.
