Milk Drop Coronet

4.

1. this image caught my eye because of the pink pattern splash of the liquid against the red background.
2. the photographer put a milk dropper next to a timer and a camera he had invented. In the 1950s it was basically impossible to take a stop motion picture like that, but with strobe lights and a bunch of electrical stuff to help, he was able to do it.
3. there were special tools required to take complicated photos so it influenced him as an engineer to try and make the shooting process more simple.
