    That is a really clear shot of a vortex ring. The white background is perfect for what’s being represented here.

  • Great colors, I like how there are two instead of just one like a lot of the other dye photos. The background is soft and the subject is the main focus of the picture which is great. Nice job!

    Great mix of colors in this picture that makes it very visually appealing. The light background was a good idea. Interesting depiction of flow visualization. The focus and contrast and shutter speed in this image are done very well.

    Wow this is really beautiful. The contrasting dark colors with the light background looks really good. Grad focus.

    This is beautiful. I like the contrast and coloring in this picture. It’s great how you’re showing both cases with the ring formed and not formed. Great background. Have you considered it the other way around, for example having a dark background and glowing fluid instead? Maybe through using photo editing.

    I enjoy the color choice of blue and green in the image, especially where they mix with each other on the edges of the ring. Was the sharpness turned up in the editing process.

    Love the colors. The image did come out grainy in a few places, but this doesn’t detract. I think the solid white background does this justice.

    The flow that is imaged here is really cool. The different colors add an additional element to the aesthetics of the image. The focus is really good in this image too, making it really pop against the white background.

    Very nice image. I like how the green stream is appearing like it is chasing the blue one. Beautiful ring at the bottom right corner!! Great job in choosing the background, the focus and lighting.

    I love the color choices and the solid white background, the framing very nicely draws the eye towards the blue ring. The focus and exposure are good.

    You nailed it! I really like the dynamics you captured. The shape of the ring disintegrating is sooo cool. The widnall instability is pretty cool.

    Nice. Everything is space and time resolved and in focus with good lighting.

    Very beautiful flow with grandiose colors with white background making the flow more beautiful. Cool flow physics with vortex ring.

    I really like the different rings that spread out from the food coloring droplets. The white background really makes the colors pop and it looks very crown-like with the way the smaller vortex rigs form off the original rings.

    This looks like it was taken through a microscope, really nice contrast, and the shapes of the dye are great at drawing the eye. Some of the lighter colors could maybe be brought out more. Overall very nice.

    Smoky. I like how the vortex turbulent rings are at different stages in time, displaying complete rings and developing rings. The adjusted background helps display the differences in contrast between the blue and green fluids.

    Good shot and cool colors with the background. The green in the top left seems a bit grainy. Not sure what that is from but I wonder if your post-processing had something to do with that.

    The contrast is very well done, and the flow of the green and blue dye form a very interesting flow pattern. The image might be a little grainy though.

    Great image composition. The colors are great and the focus is very sharp. What ISO did you use? There is a bit of grain in the photo that makes the phenomena seem less smooth.

    Great colors, I like the contrasts. Also great background, the all white looks good. My only suggestion might be to change the ISO, it looks a bit grainy.
