Photographs of cocktails through the microscope… Mixing up our perspective on our favorite cocktails, the photomicrography work of Michael Davidson shows different types of liquor and mixed drinks magnified over 1,000 times. His work has found a place in the “bar art” world selling prints through the company BevShots, and thanks to @spigumus and this Daily Mail article we find some interesting color compositions.
BevShot images are made by first crystallizing the drink of choice on a lab slide. Using a standard light microscope with a camera attached, the light source is polarized and passed through the crystal. This creates the colors we see featured.
