Water Drops – High Speed Capture
I shot a mini-series today using an off-camera flash chord and a make-shift studio. Using a few household items and a little ingenuity (*see if you can spot the spatula) I was able to get some great results straight out of the camera.
Studio Items: 2 black bounce cards (project folders), ziplock bag, needle, electrical tape, cooking tray, water, tripod.
Flash unit: Cannon 430EXII Speedlite & Cannon OC-E3
Flash settings: 1/16th stop
Camera settings: ISO 100, F 8.0, shutter speed 1/250

The shutter speed on that camera must be insane!

Wow, these look amazing. I might have to give this a try.

Cool water, Rob. I like how you’re able to create such amazing photographs with such primitive equipment (not the camera equipment, of course). My cardboard point and shoot could never do that. Speaking of . . . I need to get that film developed before it fossilizes. Have any idea who still develops 35mm?
