Steamed milk poured into espresso from above: the white stream sinking, then rising through the dark crema and blooming outward into concentric rings, the pattern spreading and settling as the pour ends, overhead view, static locked-off camera

Rain on a window at night: droplets accumulating on the glass until individual beads break loose and race downward, each one absorbing smaller drops in its path and leaving a clear trail, the blurred warm city lights behind shifting as the water moves, static locked-off camera
