Milk Splash Beata by CardinalGuzman.wordpress.com
This could have been an advertisement for the infamous Korova Milk Bar from the movie/book A Clockwork Orange, but it’s not. Ben Rowe posted a milk splash tulip the other day. I was inspired by his result and felt like playing with some milk myself, so I sat down and created this. At first it had too much air on the right side of the photo and I thought that I wouldn’t bother to correct it, but then I corrected it anyway.

Nice work, glad my post inspired you. I can also see it being an advert of some sort, but I am not sure what she is advertising.
Walking the Milky way 🙂 This is very cool CG!
Thanks Paula!
I love Paula’s comment! It’s so perfect for this really cool image. Well done Cardinal.
Very nice.
I like the contrasts!
How fun – Hope the clean up wasnt too much 🙂
Hehe, the clean up was quite easy. Thanks for the laugh moondust and have a great weekend!
All that and calcium, too. 🙂
janet
Yes, we all need calcium.
She could be advertising body milk. Get an agent! 🙂 This is very creative and the effect is quite nice.
Thanks Belle. Body milk is a great suggestion.
Yes, I agree with belle, great ad for a body milk…’Milk does the body good….’ 🙂
Yes, creative take, indeed!
Always an interesting and unique interpretation – love it
So beautiful. 🙂
O wow! How mesmerizing effect your work creates!!! Very cool …I wonder which tool you used to create this impact.
Dhanyavad Suyash. Exept from camera and flash, I did some minor adjustments in Lightroom, before I stitched it all together in Photoshop.
Amazing work dear. I loved it so much
How come you are always one of the first posters? Do you sit by the computer all day on Friday to make sure it happens?
They always post it around the same time each Friday (at 18:00). After work I go home, we eat dinner, then I do the blog post, before it’s about time to put my son to bed.
I suggested for WordPress that they should change their timing for the WPC every now and then, so that it would fit better for all the bloggers that are in different time zones, but it doesn’t seem like they’ve taken my advice…
18.00 which time zone?
I’m in Oslo, Norway.
Is it one or two hours behind Helsinki?
One hour behind. http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/finland/helsinki
Brilliant! I’m sure Alex and his droogs would approve.
love it!
love it!
fabulous pic !! such a large milk splash just by one dainty foot 😉 #just thinking !
Yeah, it’s a large milk splash!
Interesting take on the challenge, I enjoyed this week’s theme as well. How much time do you estimate you spent putting this image together?
Good question. I worked on it for 2½ – 3 ineffective hours (surfing the internet, commenting in blogs, checking emails, making a cup of tea, checking on my son, etc). Without all the shenanigans, I assume it would take 1-1½ hour.
Edit: I forgot to say that I very much enjoyed this weeks theme. It made me look into physics and the refractive index of liquids, so now I know that light travels 1.35 times faster in a vacuum than it does in milk.
Interesting fact about the travel time of light. Also, shenanigans are a legitimate part of the process in my opinion.
This is a very clever take on Refraction!! I love this one a lot!!
Thank you very much MissFinnie! I appreciate your feedback.

Very clever 🙂 Nice to see the Like Button 🙂
Thanks Alastair. The like button has made a comeback and will be here until new years. Then I’ll consider if I should keep it or not.
Cool.
Well done. Perhaps a post on the technique?
Thanks Khürt. It’s actually not so much technique in this. I just downloaded the milk splash from the link and experimented with layers on my photo until I was pleased with the result.
Great reflections,classy post.
