Didn't Work Out
There were several problems with this shot but it shows a few things so I'm posting it. First, the flash on the left failed, which I think I have figured out.
I decided to gamble and I lost.
Second the explosion broke out in an odd way, off to the upper right. I was triggering on the belly of Santa (you can see the PVC pipe off the the right that has the IR LED inside). The invisible beam shining on the sensor was interrupted only after Santa's face was gone.
My hand is in the before picture holding the RF remote for my camera. It is convinient to pass the antenna of the transmitter through the IR beam to test the flashes.
And why the golden giraffe in Santa's gift pot? It just looked stupid...
Cheers.
