after writing the WOW post, I was wondering too. I know my gun would explode the glass and probably anything else behind it for a nine mile radius lol.
But seriously, I'm interested in how you captured this, timing wise. Did you just get lucky? I wish you could use continuous shutter with a speedlite... I could imagine every failed shot involves a cleanup job.
Aha! I tried a similar shot once with disastrous and painful results. In looking at your setup, I now can clearly see the flaw in the way I was doing it:
Awesome shot, btw! Would also like to hear about how you timed it...
to bad there isn't a challenge that I could enter one of these into...
Haven't you ever heard of a "shoehorn"?? :-)
"Shooting glass in my pajamas"
"Color Portrait of a broken glass"
"Abstract Fragility"
"The tale of the shattered goblet" by the Brothers Grimm" (who's gonna look it up??)
Oh great! Ammunition (sorry about that) for Irene.
Can someone from the Site Council hide this from her? Please?
Heh,heh... too late! ;-) Great shots, VERY interesting. I wonder what sort of ammunition was used. I'd LOVE to try this but I don't think my husband would get over the shock of me even suggesting it ;-) I did try dropping glasses filled with liquid a couple of times - the mess was awesome...
Anyway, great work, Matt.
I'm surprised that no one has asked you this yet but what did you use as a table tp get that reflection and still capture all that liquid at the same time?
