Beverages, Up Close & Personal

Photographer William Legoullon takes a (very) close look at our favourite beverages.

During his work as a barista and a bartender, William Legoullon brewed up a fascination with beverages - the variety of methodical processes through which we craft them, and the detailed makeup of each liquid we drink.

In this series, William takes this fascination to a very intimate level, examining the world's top 5 most consumed mad-made beverages like science specimens. Each liquid sample was dried then photographed using a microscope. The result is taking this traditional drinkable consumption to an act of art consumption.
