Description
A ferrofluid demonstration at a nearby children's museum provided an opportunity for some interesting in-camera abstract photos. Ferrofluids are suspensions of tiny particles of iron in a thick liquid such as kerosene. They respond in amazing ways to magnetic forces. This is a long exposure of the moving magnetized shapes as they reflected various colored lights overhead.

Gary Holmes, photographer: I have always loved to photograph nature, landscapes, abstract, and other found objects of interest. Although I have staged single and group portraits and still life photographs, I prefer the challenge of trying to capture the unpredictable spontaneity of things and events as they are occurring. I started with a Kodak Brownie as a child, but entered the world of real photography with a Canon AE-1 in the late 1970's. I have continued to develop my compositional and post-processing skills and have slowly acquired higher quality equipment that is now capable of putting those skills to their best use. I finally became confident enough to begin posting my work online in September 2012, and have successfully sold a number of my photographs on Fine Art America.
