Mark Mawson from Sydney captures these beautiful shots by dropping paint in water. The colors and the lighting are simply amazing! Author said that in these color shapes everyone sees what they want to see.
Yes, I have seen these effects many times before,……and much better. But keep it up, it’s good fun and you learn something every time. Practical tip: try TRANSPARENT colours.
these are really amazing.. oh why didn't i come up with this..? i'm so jealous.. i mean i bet most of us have experimented with paint and water sometime during childhood.. but very few of us continues to be that curious.. ah lovin' it!
I have been doing photography for 40 years , have never seen this type of beauty before, if other people can’t see the beauty in then I feel sorry for them
Ahh the old cloud tank effect.. thank you vfx industry
and thank you Mark Mawson, that’s a fair bit of work to set up and they look great
now that we have cg the days of the problematic cloud tank are pretty much gone.. though it gave some great results in it’s day in films such as Close Encounters and Raiders
Great photos, love it!
