Strobe photography

In strobe photography, extremely fast flashes of light are used to capture motion that is not visible to the naked eye. in our strobe lighting assignment we popped water balloons and tried to catch the moment they popped. this is my most successful attempt of capturing said moment..



Using a similar technique to mine, Harold Edgerton took pictures like the one above. Here are a few examples of his work;


I have made an imitation of the image above, here it is, lol;

My version is not as good as Harold's version as mine is not in focus.
The following are further examples of Harold Edgerton's work; 

This is yet another example of strobe lighting being used effectively. In this example, it has been used to capture a bullet frozen in place with no motion blur. 

In this example, a test tube has been captured whilst shattering. The same method of capture has been used for the past three examples.
