First of all, sorry for the spelling of Archimedes, I´m spanish.
The duck was filled with water to achieve this splash. The slight
discoloration at the top was due to incorrect fixation of the paper
background. There was an unwanted reflection of the sink over the duck´s
face. I´ve discovered after the submission. After the submission I was in
disagreement with the background, as one of you have pointed.
Thanks for your comments.
Great fun example of displacement. At first I didn't get the connection, but luckily I'd recently seen something on PBS about Archimedes. Everything looks good, my only wish would be that the duck have a bit more light on it. 8
BRILLIANT! The only thing I can find to complain about is there's a slight discoloration or smudge or something near the top and ... water on the lens?
Nice frozen motion. I go back and forth on the background. It seems to busy and distracting, but then it also adds and element that says in the tub fun.
Unique spelling - is that as in 'Aquamedes'? Great, fun shot. Love it. Well captured and lit, considering the indoor set up. Glare across duck is a bit obtrusive and the splashes from previous attempts should have been wiped off for total purity! [7]
uh-oh - the spelling police are going to get you for this (Archimedes) but it as a gorgeous shot that brilliantly depicts a fundamental scientific principle and it gets a 9 from me.
