HIGH SPEED PHOTOGRAPHY

This was the set up for the high speed photography that we did yesterday. We had a tripod for the camera that had a macro lens on it. Then three tripods with the trigger and light connected to it. We then had a bowl of water to drop the plum in to. What we had to do was have someone ready to drop the plum from the height of the rolled brown paper. Then you also need someone on the camera ready to take the 5 sec exposure and ready to tell the person dropping the plum when to drop it. Then you also needed someone on the flash trigger resetting it for the separate shots. Below are some of the best photographs from the shoot that day.


We used a bowl of water and dropped an apple into it to created the big splash. We used a massive set up for this shoot with a large DSLR camera with a large zoom lens also with infrared triggers to set of the flash when the apple goes through it. The camera is set on a 10 second exposure time so that the camera doesn't miss the shot. The room is pitch black so when the flash goes off the camera only captures the moment when the splash happens.
