Description Fluids in motion fascinate my senses. I feel their smooth and effortless curves: structures reflecting a perfect balance of dynamic forces. They tickle some faint physical memory, like a scent evoking a forgotten mix of feelings.
-M.W

Some of you who have watched me over the years might seen this photo before. I fixed up some imperfections and changes, but i wanted to keep the old one.
Not something i usually do, but since it is one of my all time fav, and over 2 years old, i figured i could break the rule.

Changes in this version: Cloned away flash marks, highlights made stronger to make it closer to reality, grays and distractions converted to white. Some camera dust removed from the background. Bigger quality print size and available as fine art print. Removed border and signature for a cleaner look. minor contrast boost on the drop.

None of the shapes and colors are manipulated.

Hope you like it, any comment, fav, question is welcome and very appreciated.

I used to be here under a different name. Β The account is still open but I decided to create another account in my new name. Β You might remember me. Lumi-Nara, aka DaydreamMagnificence. Β Anyhoo, good to see your artwork again. Β I know you're not as active on here anymore, but throughout all these years that I haven't been here, I've never forgotten your artwork, especially this one. Β I love it so much. Β I hope life is treating you well.

I must've totally missed this one, I know I faved the counterpart but I thought I faved this one too. Regardless, I wish I could learn how you get them without any shadows in it, the shadows are driving me crazy, lol!

mhm, shadows are a pain, sometimes the flash makes them stronger, sometimes it removes them. Depends on the angle and such

Really beautiful droplet shots! You make me wanna go to the sink right away.
Do you use flash? If so, do you use the one in the camera or an exernal flash? Any other light sources? I had some trouble with the lighting when I shot drops myself, though I just had the light coming from a window.
