Challenge:Glass (Classic Editing) Camera:Nikon D100 Location: In my messy office Date: May 6, 2003 Aperture: F4 ISO: 1600 Shutter: 1/400s Galleries:Abstract, Studio Date Uploaded: May 6, 2003
I don't have any studio light nor any professional studio equipment. I just want to test if I can do this with limited resources. I want to take such a photo for a long time. Now I did it, with two big black card-board, a lamp, a few bulbs and a cut in my finger. Alhough I know the noise is noticable as the ISO is high, due to inadequate lighting, I hope you like this shot. :D

More broken glass! I wouldn't like to imagine how much glass was broken for this challenge! You had a good idea here, you didn't have to go round breaking good drinking glasses, just old light bulbs. Good work, I love the graininess here it works well.
I had a similar idea, but I thought it would be too hard to shot by myself. I would have liked to have seen a shot closer to the time on impact. Also More light and a faster shutter speed. Overall very good.
Very difficult to pull of isn't it. I blew up 7 light bulbs before I quit and moved on to something else. looks a bit grainy. Mostly high ISO because of the needed increased shutte speed. Might want to pass it through Neat Image. Jacko. 8 for effort
Would have been neat with a solid black background with the light shining straight down on it. The action is very nice... I suggest also zooming in so you get more of the action and less of the background.Too much empty space.
high ISO? It's really grainy, but that doesn't actually take away from it for me. Great timing...and interesting use of an...ashtray(?) to smash the bulb on.
