Liquid Silver

Well, it isn't earth, sea, or sky, but it is nature.

I apologize for my long absence, but we have had a busy year. In fact, we just returned from running a photo workshop in southern Belize. One day, we took our participants to a national park and showed them different ways of interpreting the flow of water. This was a new approach I tried. When I looked at it on the computer, it reminded me of liquid silver.

Those of you who have read my blogs on © is for Copyright, The Value of Photography, and The Latest in Scumbaggery? know why I do not post larger images!

Hi Margo! I like this one, it indeed looks a bit like liquid silver - or lets call it mercury ;-). Interesting flow patterns you have captured here.

This is just superb. Looks like swirling mercury. Beautiful work.

I can almost hear the sound of rushing water.

Thank you all for your kind comments. I think some of you are right in that it looks more like mercury than silver, but as a title, somehow, Liquid Mercury doesn't have the same ring as Liquid Silver!
