Water droplet impact, sequence
Water droplet impact. Image 3 of 3. High-speed photograph of the break-up of a coronet, a feature which forms after a droplet hits the surface of a liquid. The displaced water is pushed up into this crown-shaped structure for a fraction of a second before it breaks up. See images H632/161-163 for sequence

Drop High Speed Photo Impact Photographic Image Photography Scientific Splash Technique Techniques Water Droplet Coronet
EDITORS COMMENTS
This high-speed photograph captures the mesmerizing moment of a water droplet impact, showcasing the intricate sequence of events that unfold upon contact with a liquid surface. Aptly titled "Water Droplet Impact, Sequence" this image is part of a series of three prints that beautifully depict the break-up process of a coronet. In this particular frame, we witness the formation and subsequent disintegration of a crown-shaped structure known as a coronet. As the droplet collides with the liquid's surface, it displaces water upwards, creating an ephemeral crown-like shape that lasts only for an instant before breaking apart into smaller fragments. The scientific significance behind this phenomenon lies in its exploration of fluid dynamics and surface tension properties. By employing advanced photographic techniques and high-speed photography technology, Science Photo Library has captured this split-second event with remarkable precision and clarity. This visually striking print serves as both an artistic marvel and an educational tool for those interested in scientific inquiry. It showcases how photography can be utilized to capture fleeting moments in nature while shedding light on fundamental principles governing our physical world. "Water Droplet Impact, Sequence" is just one example from Science Photo Library's extensive collection that showcases their commitment to providing awe-inspiring images rooted in science and technology.
