Eau, Water Picture!
An artist has caused a splash with these incredible photographs of water droplets.
Markus Reugels, 33, drops the water onto trays, egg cups or teaspoons and snaps away as it splashes upwards and outwards.
He adds food colouring to the water and different colour gels to his flashes to create an intense glowing effect.
By adding guar gum to the water he is able to thicken it and alter the shape of the splashes.
The bizarre results look like something from a science-fiction film or a nuclear mushroom cloud.
They vary in height from 3cm to 15cm.
The shapes can be further altered by adding sugar and the splash can be increased in height by adding rinse aid to the dish.
Markus uses a sensor to trigger the camera because the water falls too fast for his finger to operate the shutter.
An extremely fast flash and shutter speed, of up to 1/16,000 of a second, also allows him to capture detail in the splash patterns that the human eye could never see.
His results are not manipulated or coloured on a computer.
Markus said: "Water can create beautiful shapes but without high-speed photography we could never see them.
"The shapes of the splashes are very difficult to manipulate.
"The basic shapes, such as the umbrellas and flying discs, are easy but to create the double splashes you must work very hard, have good endurance and patience.
"You must also analyse the results and test new things."
Markus, from Schweinfurt, Bavaria, Germany, added: "The important thing is to have fun - the rest will come by itself."

Reading to Dogs Scheme at St Michael's School, Bournemouth, Britain - 06 Jul 2009

Reading to Dogs Scheme at St Michael's School, Bournemouth, Britain - 06 Jul 2009
THE SHAGGY DOG STORY
A primary school has become the first in Britain to get children to read books to DOGS as a way of improving literacy levels.
Recent research has shown that youngsters who read to pet pooches learn more quickly than those who read aloud to adults.
A school has been trialling a pioneering scheme that involves dogs like Yorkshire Terriers, Labradors and Shetland sheepdogs brought in to the classroom.
The shaggy dog stories are meant to give the Year Three children more confidence in reading out loud as the canine audience don't laugh if they stammer or get a word wrong.
The reading sessions last for 45 minutes and the seven and eight-year-olds are now much improved, according to staff.
And the bizarre project has been such a hit that more mutts are to be sent in to class to listen to the tales.
The scheme was launched in April at St Michael's Primary School in Bournemouth, Dorset.
Critics have dismissed the move as a "gimmick" and said the canine audience could not replace traditional teaching methods.
But teacher Martin Ford, who helped introduce the scheme, said the dogs had a made a "significant impact."
He said: "The children always looked forward to their sessions and it certainly helped with motivating them to read both at school and at home.
"There was also a real sense of ownership and pride from the children towards their dogs.
"Any way to get the children to read is a positive way."
The dog-reading scheme was organised by the Caring Canines charity and now more schools are trying to get the trained dogs into class.
Julie Lankshear, from the charity, said: "Ours are special dogs that are good with children.
"The scheme works because the dogs are non-judgmental; they...
