Liquid flowers

Waves crashing

Paint soaked tools and toys

Exploding paint balloons

Coke Can explosions

Exploding figurines

A glass in a field

A brilliant summer’s day shot of a glass in a field captured by Rachel Samanyi. A simple image with brilliant results. 

Mushroom cloud milk

Something as simple as a droplet of liquid hitting another liquid surface can have some incredible results when photographed this way.

Exploding egg

This image is the result of an egg being shot with an air rifle. The splattering of egg liquids from within almost gives the appearance of a double-yolker.

Peppers and water

Duck shot

This unfortunate rubber duckie was seemingly sacrificed in order to capture this simple shot at high-speed.

Brilliant bulbs

A simple image of a bulb being broken by an air pellet is oddly satisfying and easy on the eye. Though we’re glad we don’t have to clear up the resulting mess.

Balls in a glass

Joe Dyer worked some high-speed photography magic with this image of clear water pearls being dropped into a Martini glass

The festival of colour

A festival goer has colourful Gulal powder slapped into their hair during the Holi festival. Captured wonderfully on camera.

Projectile pepper

Fluid movement

As you might have gathered, high-speed photographers have a thing for fluids. It’s easy to see why.

Escaping drinks

Here a little bit of photo trickery has made it seem like the drink is escaping from the glass. Leaping away before it’s consumed.
