Eau, water picture! Artist makes a splash with his amazing portfolio of liquid droplets
By thickening the water with guar gum he was also able to alter the shape of the splashes, making some of them take on the bizarre look of something from a science-fiction film or a nuclear mushroom cloud.
The shapes, which varied from 3cm to 15cm, were altered even further by adding sugar and, by putting rinse aid in the dish, he was able to increase the height of the droplet splashes.
However, were it not for the advancements of high-speed photography, these images would not exist as they are impossible to see with the naked eye.
