Take a photograph of fluid dynamics:

Fill a glass with water. Set your camera to close-up mode (Macro mode) and position it so that the frame is filled by the glass/water.
Add a light behind the glass, preferably white light (any standard light bulb). Now, the fun part!

Add drops of a colored liquid, slowly. Take photos as the liquid disperses. To add more dynamics, tap the glass enough so that waves are created. Also, stir the water with a toothpick.

Food coloring works great here. Also, believe it or not, blood! As the color gets integrated into the water, choose another color and do the same.

Also, don't use flash, because the light will just reflect off of the glass, and will look terrible. That's why we have a light *behind* the glass.

Good luck!

If you wanted to spend the time, you could build a model rocket and take a picture of it in the air. This could show acceleration/deceleration or many other principles.
Another idea is to take a picture of an airplane in flight. This shows how light waves move faster than sound waves.(a little explaining would be required)

waft an merchandise in water for instance buoyancy. Take a image of a shape crane for instance levers, pulleys and gears. A drag racer illustrates acceleration, friction.

Take a photo of two people hugging. One should be short and round, the other tall and lean. They should be dressed in very different styles.

Label the photograph "opposites attract."

You could use electrostatic attraction by induced charge. You need to find some kid with nice long dry hair, get her/his mum to attract it with a rubbed balloon - use a dark background if light hair and side-light. Light background if dark hair, no flash.

Lightning! It is interesting. Lightning occurs when the air gets stripped of some or all electrons.

The sea, a wave upon the ocean. How the moon causes it.

Take a pic of someone standing firmly on the ground. Congratulations, you've demonstrated gravity.

I'm not sure that you can take a photograph that contains NO principles of physics.

colapse of the World Trade center......the vacuum created when the structure went down...where the atmosphere went from inside...the domino effect from 4500 ton floors stacking on each other causing the colapse...etc.
