About The Artwork

Capturing a photographic image of the exact millisecond that two waterdrops, which are travelling towards each other (one from above & one from below) at a speed that the human eye cannot record; actually collide. We can see here the ‘Spout’ or ‘Jet’ projecting upwards to meet the next ‘drop’ of liquid before the actual collision.. The ‘Spout’ or ‘Worthington Jet’ is named after the physicist who discovered it in 1908. Arthur Mason Worthington (11 June 1852 – 5 December 1916 ) was an English physicist and educator. He is best known for his work on Fluid Mechanics, especially the physics of splashes, and from observing those, he pioneered techniques of High Speed Photography. Worthington’s pioneering work would later be overshadowed by the work of Harold Edgerton in the 1930’s. Improving on Worthington’s techniques, Edgerton’s high speed photography using a stroboscope could produce up to 3000 images per second. The most famous image that was captured using Edgerton’s technique’s, and easily recognizable & memorized was the 'splash' or 'Coronet' of a milk drop hitting a glass surface. That image has been used extensively in the advertising Industry ever since. These images are totally unique as it is impossible to replicate the same collision - no two photographs are ever going to be the same...ever! Given my 'artistic licence' I have named each image to whatever springs to mind when I first see the image - try it yourself and see what you can come up with! This piece of Art is made from - Archival 310gsm Baryta Photographic Paper...and not forgetting the passion, love, determination, creativity, imagination and skills required to produce it.

My photographic experience and knowledge has come from a journey of discovery over the years and the desire to learn something new that will not only satisfy the urge to learn but also embroider my creative spirit . I look for something different, unusual, unique and quirky that hopefully will catch the viewers attention. I am skilled in Landscape, Portrait, Street/Urban photography and Macro. I print and frame all my images to a standard that people are more than happy to have on their walls. Sharing my art really does give me a sense of pride. I have recently stepped into the watery world of waterdrop photography, an artform which is absolutely fascinating and always gives unpredictable results. No one photograph is ever going to be the same – ever! And it is this ‘uniqueness’ and ‘unpredictability’ that captures the imagination and releases the spirit of creativity.
