The boiling looks amazing! It looks like a mushroom and weird irregular clouds. The picture is well in focus and the refraction, not the color or diffusion, is what makes the picture.
Really great visualization of the boiling water here. I really like that you’ve gotten close to the subject. The dust is a little distracting to me but overall it doesn’t take too much away from the image. It is really high quality and captures a very cool phenomenon.
The focus seems good in addition to a well done exposure. I love the shape and texture of the air bubbles. Would love to see how may different kinds of bubbles you can make.
I love the shapes this creates – jellyfish? mushrooms? Great work this came out super cool!
This is a very cool image. Very good focus to make the image look nice and crisp. The coloring and background make the aesthetic of the photo look really good. Interesting flow visualization.
Awesome picture. I really like the lack of bright colors- it makes it different from most of the images we see. Could be cool to see a close up of one bubble.
This is pretty cool. The close up makes it really good and I think having the image a bit dark as it is makes it great. Great focus.
Focus is clear and subject is front and center in the image. Overall, you’ve captured the fluid flow perfectly.
Wow! I love how clear the bubbles are in this photo. The bubbles are so in focus they almost seem solid. Great composition.
I like how you can see the bubbles propelling up the left side. The contrast works well so that you can see the bubbles.
Very cool, and I love how the insides of the bubbles are sparkling. The mushroom shaped bubble is cool.
The water bubbles look very crisp which is unexpected. So good job capturing such a distinct texture and moment in time. The lighting you said is a bit off but I think it helps.
This is excellent, the focus is perfect and the bubbles are very crisp looking. The colors also work well.
The bubbles are captured nicely, with interesting surface effects and shapes. They almost look like tin foil in places. Nice focus and composition. The background is a little distracting, but I’m not sure a white background would do as well a job showing off the diffusion through the bubbles.
Great job capturing this image with the difficult circumstances. My favorite part, is mushroom shaped bubble on the left.
Cool shapes and good shutter speed to get this shot. Maybe a cleaner glass would look better but still looks good.
Great focus and exposure control. I think the pot looks a little bit dirty, but it doesn’t detract from the photo.
Excellent visualization of boiling water, image could possibly use more contrast, focus is very good.
I haven’t seen a lot of boiling images, the bubbles were captured very cleanly!
Art
I like the jelly fish structure in the bubbles :)
Flow
You captured some cool effects! We see surface tension pulling the bubbles, creating instabilities, and there are capillary waves captured in the surface of the bubbles.
Photographic Technique:
The sunlight reveals the bubble contours—nice!
I think this is a very creative picture and high quality. I like how it captures all the details of the water vapor bubbles.
This picture was very interesting. Made me wonder what Daniel did to make this phenomena. Good focus with creative flow.
The mushroom shape that the bubble on the left makes is really cool. Did you find any reason that this shape was created?
Amazing job with the focus and light composition to capture the flow.
Awesome capture. Love the mushroom bubble. Exposure is a little low but the focus and composition are great. I wonder if the background could be changed for even better refraction in the water. Something like a checkerboard? Anyways awesome picture.
Nice job on lightening. Even though it is just sun light, the image is well demonstrating the flow of water.
Amazing focus with really interesting flow. The image almost looks unrealistic.
The greyscale colors in this image are great. The focus is also awesome. Really like the aesthetic of the bubbles floating through the water.
Clear flow! I also like the mushroom/umbrella effects of the bubbles rising and falling.
Very beautiful flow, focus, resolution and exposure is good. Flow is understandable. Interesting boiling timing.
Very cool flow. I like the different sizes, shapes, and locations of the bubbles formed. The focus is well done, and the colors help highlight the image.
The color of the background works really will with the lighting in the flow. The image has great clarity and it looks like a really intense phenomena
The image captured displays almost a plume like formation. Interesting to see the rigidity of each bubble shape, with cutting edges.
Really great focus in this photo. I like the contrast between the foreground bubbles and the softer background.
Really cool bubbles, I like that they are so irregular. Its cool to have large and small bubbles. I wouldn’t add much else, overall it came out well. Maybe mess around with colors or highlights.
This flow is really cool as shows the phenomenon really well. I enjoy all the different shapes that exist in the liquid.
I really like the boiling water motion. The one that looks like a mushroom is cool. The lighting is pretty good considering you could only use sunlight.
Maybe cleaning the container to get right of that bit of dust would help the image.
The flow looks really cool and how the bubbles look like they could actually be a solid. The focus is good and then bubbles look awesome.
Beautiful image, it looks great with the high shutter speed. The flow is clear and interesting. Nice job.
Very nice focus and perfect lighting! Background is not really distracting, and the image clearly shows the flow of the bubbles.
Really obvious flow, and extremely clear as well
Amazing focus and crispness to capture something so fast. It kind of looks like liquid metal which is a cool effect.
Encapsulates the flow nicely. Nice aesthetic and color as well.
