| Macallan 101 -- Ernie Button |
The NPR food blog The Salt recently featured the beautiful whiskey-dervied images of Ernie Button. Read it
here. The post also focuses on the the science of the subtle rings that Button captures in his photographs, saying, "According to
Howard Stone, head researcher at Princeton University's Complex Fluids Group, the rings and waves seen in Button's images are probably the result of particles that are left behind once the alcohol has evaporated." And Button's beautiful images have inspired these scientists, who now plan to do research on it. "In particular, they are looking into why different types of whisky produce subtly different patterns."
