Yet another beautiful highspeed shot. The way the water is shaped, it looks, at first glance, to be a bird, flying away from the flower's surface. Then it is an insect coming to land on the flower in search of pollen.

I really love and admire the way you capture a moment, nay rather an instant in time with these photos. I'd love to know how you go about setting them up in order to capture these perfect shots.

The almost black and white feel of the image is not too stark, it's moderated by the hand holding the flower.

Another great image for your collection!

A most impressive piece, the formation of the water an that of the dandelion intertwines as if to fill the empty surroundings making a much bolder statement towards the actual image, it gives off the same effect as it would if you were to use a frame or borders. The artist is very minimalistic because of this the image is so much more profound, this benefits the image as does the lighting the shimmers of light that protrude from the water formed bird adds like a dream aspect to the artists work opening up the imagination which in turn projects deeper thoughts towards this piece.

Really beautiful concept and execution. Your photography skills are just as good as your painting. Is there anything you _can't_ do? :P

*envy*
