About High Speed Photography

This is the High Speed Photography group (aka HSP). A place to discuss and share tips about technique, equipment, and photographs.

Harold "Doc" Edgerton is widely considered by many as the father of high-speed photography. He invented the strobe which is the foundation for most high speed still imaging today. More information about him can be found here.


Pool images: Any high speed captures of extremely fast events which cannot be seen by the naked eye. Please only submit your own photographs (no 3D renderings, drawings or other people's images grabbed from the internet).

Photo Tags: Just add highspeed to any image you add to the group pool. If you forget then an admin will add it for you free of charge :)

Only sharp images will be accepted.To maintain the quality of the images pool, please only submit reasonably sharp images. Heavily motion blurred photographs are not generally considered HSP. Photos should be taken with illuminated flash. Images containing slight blur will be deleted.

Note: Lightning photography should be placed in the lightning group.

This is a public group and anyone can join.
