In focus: 'Double Pillar' Water Drop Photography

Markus Reugels has perfected a method of water drop photography that creates amazing tripod shapes that appear to be from another world.
By using high-speed photography and clever lighting, he has created unique effects by employing a so-called Double Pillar technique.
It sees three valves set at different angles and simultaneously releasing water drops mixed with milk or cream.
Markus, a parquet-floor layer from Schweinfurt, Germany, explains: "The idea for these Double Pillar shots grew a long time ago. Nearly one year ago I did some collisions side by side, but it had the problem that the pillars were attracted to each other.
"Then a picture grew in my head: would it be possible that the two pillars formed a single one and on this could I place a collision? It took very long to get the idea out of my head, but I found it worked very well.
"The only thing is that the shapes are not so elegant. Maybe in the future I will understand the physics of the processes better to get better and smother shapes. In the future I will try to bring four pillars to one."
