This was such a fantastic idea, and brilliantly executed! I love the crisp iciness on the flower, yet the colors are still so fresh and vibrant. I love it!

Ahh yes, the liquid nitrogen. It wasn't LN2. It was a Dust Off can turned upside down. The gases used to pressurize the can are very cold and that's what spurts out if turned upside down and used. I sprayed this liquid/gas stuff over the flower and waited until it froze up and during that time this shot was taken because of the beautiful trails of water vapor. I was amazed at the delicacy of the misty trails and wanted that to show up, couldn't care about the flower any more at that point.
Maybe a physicist can explain what exactly is going on here.
Thanks for the comps and comments everyone. :D |

Great shot - I like the trails particularly. I think it would be better if the tweezers (or whatever) were out of the frame, but overall, nice job. |

Really cold looking, nice lighting and colors. The two trails coming down from the flower are a little distracting. Still very nice. |

This is a brilliant idea and well lit. I will have to complain about the metal rod on the top. Without that this would be a top image in this challenge. |

The gold attracts my attention, but I like the lighting in this image. |

the ghosting particales takes away from crispness and the icyness of the flower. |

this is pretty cool. only my second photograph that I'm rating, but I predict it will do well in its uniqueness. Love the trails. |

Beautiful shot (although, the faint white trail lines below the blossom are slightly distracting.) |
