Water Wigs

This is one of those artsy posts that's only tangentially sciency. And by that I mean that it involves water in neat ways. But the photography is beautiful and funny at the same time.

What happens when you drop water balloons on a bunch of bald guys? You take pictures.

Tim Tadder is a photographer who did just that. He "found a bunch of awesome bald men and hurled water balloons at their heads, to capture the explosion of water at various intervals. The result [is] a new head of water hair!" A laser and a sound trigger was used to capture the right moments for each subject and create a "head of hair" that best fit with the man's face. The colors of the lasers add wonderful, visual interest in these amusing photos. Here are a few of my favorites:
