Fastest Swim Woman in the World!

This lady is a third time AOTW and has the current world record for fastest 200mm breaststroke.

 

In order to do this shoot I had to,

•buy 1 optical slave

•buy 1 waterproof case

•borrow my friends g9

 

I then set up the flash on the edge of the pool at 1/1 power. I put the optical slave inside the pouch and attached it to the radio trigger I own. Then I had to let the radio trigger and slave float on top of the water.

 

I then set my friends g9 in its underwater case to manual flash (only flashed once) at full power. So when I pulled the trigger

 

Camera fired flash -> optical slave fired radio trigger -> radio trigger fired flash.

 

And volià, photo for the Ubyssey.
