Sound Triggered Photo?

Well, Audrey and I weren't really prepared on Thursday for doing sound triggered photos so we went searching through the scene shop for something loud. In a large fluffy pile of dust, we found this old EXPO marker. We weren't really sure if it would work for what we need it to.... But here is our photo from that. We threw the marker at the ground and then the flash was triggered. DUN DUN DUN. (;

Strobe Photos Day #1



The photos started to get better after I figured out what I was doing.... I'm still wanting to get different ones than these, but this is a start. The first one up there is a fail, but the next two aren't bad...

Past AAPT Contest Winner::Inspiration #2

I also love this one, not just the colors and all the little things that photographers like... But I love how this is something so simple. You see these dandelions all over the place in yards in the spring and summer. And I'm sure that the majority of us have "made a wish" by trying to blow all the fluff off. But it all happens so fast that you never see this, and I think that is the cool part of it.

Past AAPT Contest Winner::Inspiration #1


I like how this image is different. They drizzled honey into a glass of water. When we think of high speed things, we think of shattering something, lightning, or dropping a pinch of water. This is something practical like pouring honey on a plate, but into a glass to catch the movement.

Why? I am into photography but have never done anything with high speed photography. I'm excited and ready to learn about this different type of photography.
