Black Hole, High Speed Photos of Spinning Paint

Black Hole by Fabian Oefner

In the colorful photo series “Black Hole,” photographer Fabian Oefner created circular paint patterns by spinning paint with a power drill. To create the images, Oefner applied paint to a cylinder attached to a drill. The drill was rigged to a camera with a high speed flash—the spinning paint in the photos was captured milliseconds after the drill was activated. Oefner shows the process in this video. For many more science-inspired photo series, check out his website.
