AWESOME SHOT! I see it is copyrighted. I teach courses in photochemistry and photocuring, and have been looking for a photo to make the analogy that photons exiting the tip of a light unit are similar to water droplets emitting from the end of a hose spraying water - and THIS ONE IS IT!

Any chance I can get your permission to use this image in my lectures on photochemistry? If so, how can I give you proper credit? Thanks!

Please PM me and let me know how you sync 1/8000 with your d70. I can only go to 1/500 with my SB800 flash and my D70!

This is kind of cool. Amazing how many particles there are in that spray when you get this kind of detail. Well captured. Simple, fun, sharp, well lit...hmmm, should do ok with this. ;^) Good luck.
