High Speed Explosions Photography High speed, or "flash" photography is an art, widely used in scientific research, which also has a dedicated following among those wanting to "blow things apart" in the most elegant way possible. It's not easy to come up with a perfect shot... consider 1200ft/sec average speed of a bullet, plus a synchronizing laser, hi-tec flash setup and a fancy camera-work. The following is "the best of" gallery from a few masters of the genre. High Speed Explosions Photography   Stefan, a.k.a. Fotofrog has a gorgeous set, where fruits and some vegetables get blown to smithereens, together with some tableware: (images credit: Stefan - Fotofrog) Crayons from Spyzter: (image credit: Khuong) Shattered glass lamp: ("Shattered Glass" by Raniel) Peeled banana (and more from Jasper Nance) (image credit: Jasper Nance) Antibacterial soap bar: (image credit: Jasper Nance) Unfortunate? doll: (image credit: Jasper Nance) Hot tomato: (image credit: Jasper Nance) Bullet through a bottle: (image credit: Johnny Lee) "Pulsetronics" is UK company specializing in high-speed photography, mostly for science research. They also have a few artistic gems there: Full Magnum Force: (image credit: Arya Abidi) Two spherical shock waves are visible on this "schlieren image" (an interferometric technique used to study the distribution of density gradients within a transparent medium). A serious weapon with considerable force, but nothing a good solid bottle of beer couldn't do:
