Machinery: For this set, called
River and taken near his home, Mr Long created a special machine to
squirt the liquid, which could work while submerged in the water.They look like exquisite vases made
of finely-blown glass, placed carefully on a pedestal to receive the
admiration of gallery visitors.
But in fact these colourful images are not precious artefacts preserved for the ages, but show a split-second in which specially-manipulated liquids are captured in fantastic formation.They are the work of American photographer Jack Long, 55, from Milwaukee, who developed a special formula for the liquids himself.

Split-second: The images could be mistaken for intricate glasswork, but are actually split-second snapshots of liquid in motion

Art: American photographer Jack Long, 55, took
the images, created on pedestals, after viewers said that his pictures
look like they could be valuable works of art
