Misc. Ramblings

I think I've been interested in photography since I was in elementary school and had a Kodak Brownie Hawkeye. Later, when I worked at the family printing business, I used the darkroom to process film, slides, and prints. There was something almost magical to see the image appearing out of a white piece of paper, made yellow by the safe lights. To see the rich tones, from pure white to pure black, never failed to fascinate me. To this day, I appreciate black and white images more than color.

That said, every once in awhile I run across a site that intoxicates the senses with the pleasure of form and, in the case of the Liquid Sculpture site, movement.

This site displays images, taken with a high speed flash, of water droplets (note, you need to fully enable javascript for the images to display). You've probably seen photos of milk droplets or such but photographer Martin Waugh plays with colors and substances to create, yes, liquid sculptures. All the content is copyrighted so I won't be showing you any examples but feel free to go to his site to take a look.
