I had a couple of old sphygmomanometers I'm supposed to take to the toxic waste disposal. Fortunately, despite the cracked hoses, it still held enough air (and mercury) to hoist up a column. Shot on my tripod, using macro mode zoomed-in, timer, and one incandescant light--no flash.
Cropped a little from the right and boosted midtones with a simple curve, two light passes with Unsharp Mask.

It's a good photo of a somewhat uninteresting subject - the liquid is there, but ... I don't know. Maybe if you were closer or further back, or changed something overall.
I agree your photo contains liquid. But when I look at it, I think, "Blood pressure", not "liquid", in other words, I have to work to make it on topic in my head. it was an interesting idea, and you're the second person who has sent me to a dictionary to look up part of what their title meant, so I learned something from it.
