Earlier edition of the borosilicate test tube + BB effort. When this worked I started decorating with flower, below.
Here I am trying to simulate a bare bulb strobe through the use of a tupperware container as a diffuser on my Vivitar 285HV. I like the effect.. minimal shadowing and very even lighting.
Loving these jumping pictures. My friend Tyler in the middle of the street at night.

Had a Photoshop class with Tim Buerger today.
Worked on some of the photos I did in a previous strobe lesson in Minato Mirai, Yokohama. Now it feels like the lesson is complete... from the shooting to the post-production.
I was never a huge fan of flashes and non-natural light but I really like the results of this class... time to practice!

On my way to take few landscape shots I notice that this bird is checking me out. Luckily for once I have my flash gear with me, so I got a decent shot of this nosy bird.
BTW, does anyone know what kind of bird this is?
Lighted by radio strobe (430ex, full power) on a tripod situated over - left of the camera and lower - center from the bird. On the other side: the SUN (G2V -class star, full power).

Taken individual photo keeping one slave flash in front of the face triggered through slave unit.
Attached both the photos in PS
Strobist info: D300s on long exposure, subject is exposed by the flash test button on the SB600.
Appart from corpping and colour correction, no Photoshop has been used in creating these.
When reviewing my pictures, I realized I actually captured the strobe lit in one! Soo 4423 and 4439 pull a cut of 27 out of the Malt as they finish up a days worth of switching. 9/14/2011
From MIT Strobe Project class.
A couple people asked me for additional detail, so here goes. This was shot in Doc Edgerton's lab at MIT in about 1978 in a course then taught by Charlie Miller. The rifle was of a basic single shot variety (don't know the caliber). The strobe--as I recall an air gap strobe with about a 1 microsecond flash-- was set off by a microphone attached to a triggering device with a variable delay. The current from the microphone spikes when the advance shock wave passes over it. (It's very obvious when you see a silhouette style of bullet photo; I'll post one of those if I can dig it up.) You could actually adjust the delay by eye to get the bullet in the right position. In a dark room, you can see the frozen bullet when the strobe fires.
