The honey looks so yummy… mmm…
This could really work as an ad for honey! The overall composition and colors are well done, but it looks like you could use lower noise by having a higher ISO, and bump up the whites / the contrast.
nice image and idea. the framing of this is image is great also with the honey being 1/2 of the way through the frame. nice job
This image is awesome! I really like the visual aesthetic of the honey being poured onto the surface. The focus and color of this image are great. Nice work!
I love the simplicity of the image. It is quite elegant, yet being so clear and nicely framed it has lots impact.
I really like the simplicity of this image. The flow is really pretty and captured well. The colors are lovely and I like the white spoon and plate.
The Reynolds number would be good to know here.
Nice framing and focus. Have you looked into the coiling instability?
Art
It’s cool.
Photographic Technique
I like the composition, everything is arranged in a nice way, especially the geometry of the honey lying down. It;s a little grainy.
Flow
You captured the curve really nicely. There are four regimes of honey flowing—I think you caught the first. Putting the spoon higher makes really different effects. I really like the curve of the pouring honey stream.
The way the the background blurs out is nicome. Did you try out pouring the honey from different lengths?
The flow of honey off the spoon onto the base is nice. I like how the column is a solid stream and is in focus.
I like the framing, depth of field, and focus. The granularity of the honey, and the colors are very soothing and nice. It makes me want some honey.
Yum. I love honey and this makes my mouth water. The flow is a little simple but I like the reflection of the column of honey in the pool.
The honey flow is unique, and I like the depth of field of the image. The image is pretty grainy, though.
I like the composition and colors a lot. Very visually nice image, and well photographed. The flow is shown well. Good work.
Cool viscous fluid, overall nice flow. The image is a bit grainy, if suggest taking down the ISO. Nice color in the fluid.
Very nice focus and reflective effect. Also I like the grainy touch to the image. It really helps bring out the quality of the honey
Everyone else has used multiple dyes to help demonstrate their flows. I really enjoy how you only used one fluid. Using food dye would have ruined it, and you protected the simplicity and pureness of your experiment.
It is very interesting to see thick pillar of honey. If you use water instead of honey, I wouldn’t see that thickness of fluid. Nice focus!
Very nice photo. The honey running off the spoon is captured very well. The photo is a bit grainy…maybe consider lowering your ISO?
Great composition. I really like the focus of your image and how you used the spoon to show where the flow was coming from.
The viscosity of the honey is clearly illustrated by your usage of the rule of thirds to frame the fluid flow, your depth of field, and the soft lighting in the scene.
Beautiful effect with rich color. The white and golden color go well together.
I really like the focus and framing of this image and it clearly demonstrates the high viscosity of honey. The image is quite grainy, which I actually like because it creates a retro aesthetic, but if this was unintentional you could consider turning down the ISO gain on your camera or providing more light for the scene.
I like how you can see the flow, it almost looks heavy. You can see the viscosity of the honey and you can tell that the flow is slow and methodical. I really like the way that this photo was shot.
Interesting depiction of flow visualization. Good colors in the photo and nice light background to make the honey stand out and be the main focus of the photo. The image seems really granulated. Was that on purpose?
It almost looks like you took this image on film because of its grainy ness ? was this intentional in post production?
Love the simplicity and the elegance of the honey drip/flow in this image. The photo has a grainy quality that I actually like here. However, the image could have its exposure increased a bit.
Very nice simple rural aesthetic, could capture a more complex flow though.
