Visual Art or High-speed water drop photography. A winter activity that I have enjoyed practising for several years, alongside Nature and Landscape Photography.
I am then always surprised by the possibilities of settings and the results.
A setup I built myself in a small room in our house where I spend a lot of hours.
The preparation requires as much attention as arriving at a beautiful result. Mix water to viscosity then mix with acrylic paint in the desired amount and colour. Then set up and light the lighting or flash units. Using a controller and IR remote control, magnetic valves, flash units and camera are controlled.

I taught myself by reading a lot about it and trying it out.
Normally, the background in this kind of photo is usually black because it gives a nice contrast, but in this photo I adjusted the background in Photoshop and looked for contrasting colours and a playful effect and a touch of AI.

I travelled the world as a photographer and made many photography trips. My preference lies with Nature and Landscape Photography,  but..
