It looks like its stitting on top of a frozen pillar of ???. Maybe dry ice or just regular ice.

Is there a superconductor in liquid nitrogen? If there is then the magnet is floating in air and the white fog is small water droplets suspended in air.

Paramagnetic LOX?
Correct, We have a winner.

I made about 50ml of liquid oxygen by passing medical grade O2 through a condensor in a dewar of LN2. I made it out of copper tubing which then dripped and sputtered into the container with a flow rate of about 1-3 l/min. The LOX container is kept in the bath of LN2 to stop it bubbling away.
I have been able to confirm that LOX is blue tinged and will adhere to a magnet due to the paramagnetic properties. The close up photo shows a small NIB magnet with a crown of LOX over the top giving the muffin like appearance to the NIB. There is a blanket of cold air above it from the boiling LOX which in still air was very clearly defined. The setup was on an upside down styrofoam cup as a very shallow insulating dish.

Wow, liquid O2. That's pretty cool. Do you have any pictures of the blue-ish o2? Anyway, very cool.

The third picture up shows the blueish tint against white paper.

Now on my site too under Liquid Oxygen.

We had a professor give a demonstration with LN2, and he condesned O2 from a cylinder in a test tube. He then put it in a beaker, got a piece of steel wool smoldering with a lighter, and dropped it in the O2...

It cracked off/burned though the bottom of the beaker and scorched the table top. cheesey
