#Photography | Frozen moments by Neal Grundy     Harold Edgerton’s Milk Drop Coronet (1957) is listed amongst TIME Magazine’s 100 Most Influential Photos of All Time. It freezes the instant a drop of liquid hits a bright red surface – splashing upwards into a perfect white crown. Edgerton is credited as inventing modern stroboscopic photography, which uses a rapid succession of light flashes to capture a quickly moving object. Likewise, for Neal Grundy, a contemporary image-maker who specialises in still life and freeze motion techniques, every movement matters.               Each of his Fabric Forms pictures is unique because it captures a split second that can never be recreated. It would be impossible to re-orchestrate such a delicate balance of folds in mid-flight. Here, turquoise, purple and orange sheets flutter against matching studio backdrops. Viewers might find themselves anthropomorphising their shapes; the cloths, at certain angles, can look like a person dancing.     nealgrundy.co.uk               Image credits: Neal Grundy, from Dancing Fabrics (2021).
