As an elastic band vibrates, a sessile fluid (sugar-free blue Powerade) on top of that band ejects upward forming a crown of fluid jets. These jets eventually impinge and form droplets.

Camera information: Shot on an Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II with the kit lens at 42mm, an f number of f/5.6, exposure time of 1/10,000, and 1600 ISO using the Shutter priority program. The fluid (Blue Powerade Zero) was dispensed on top of a black elastic exercise band extended between two legs of a chair. This photo was taken outside in direct sunlight. I augmented the lighting with a shop halogen lamp directed toward the band from the opposite side of the sun.

Final Edited Image. The thumbnail image is a cropped version that I feel shows up better on WordPress.

    Love the drama of this image! The crown shape of the water splash is reminiscent of the splash around the droplet and the focus and editing is skillful

    This is such a great image! I love the greyscale coloring of the image, I think it really makes the flow stand out.

    Capturing that instantaneous liquid crown is very cool. I really like the black and white tones and the clear, sharp image. Also, the photography setup is very creative!

    I like how the image looks but I really appreciate how you explained the setup required to capture the image. I also like that it is in black and white, it looks super professional

    I really like the way the water splash is angled. The black-and-white filter further enhances the image. Great work!
