Just something that I found very interesting that someone sent it to me.
They were lots of images so put it up on a slide show. I found it very interesting. Hope you like it, enjoy

Amin, get a copy of today's Daily Telegraph, there are some fluid pictures you will like.

Oh thanks Ken, that's really great, am off right now off the door to get a copy , eager to see the images

Talking about going to get a copy I better get my back side off this chair because it seems in the past couple of days I am glued here and PENTAXUSER forum is to blame .
I think I better go and get a life too . Is this some kind of vodoo spell you people have cast on me? That ever since I went to the other side its me glued here and at the same time not done any puffs or drinks .

if you can't get the telegraph, they're in the Sun as well.

before anyone asks, someone in my department buys it and leaves it in the tea room!
you don't have to be mad to post here



but it does help

I did manage to get something close to those ones in the newspapers.
Looking at those images just brought back memories and had to dig out a few and process them

And when you start mixing up with milk I usually like them with the black background

Thanks Jack,
I missed playing with these droplets, been pretty busy lately with other stuff. And when Ken mentioned the fluids images in the paper I just had to get it and it took me down memory lane

On this one I was pretty lucky, managed to get the droplet of milk reflected on the thin water film in the circle just a fraction before it burst

And to finish here is a genie out of cigar smoke. The right arm stretched as in an attitude of subservience

This is straight out of camera, no manipulation in PS or colours added as I sometimes do.

Really nice set Amin, send them in to the sun to show what UK photographers can do with liquids.
