Liquid Sculptures are the capture of fluids in motion, unique shapes which can’t be seen by the naked eye. Captured in camera by using a macro lens and off camera speed lights, lighting plays a key element in freezing the subject. By carefully timing my drops of liquid, I can create a collision in a pool below and make amazing shapes which appear to dance and twist on the water’s surface. By carefully using a short burst of air I can bend the liquid with leaving only milliseconds before it collapses.
