dart splash sequence

dart splash sequence by iDream_in_Infrared.
Two shot composite of a dart spiraling to the bullseye. I thought it was interesting how the bristle board threw debris on impact. Lit with a single SB-600 snooted with 12 inches of black paper taped to a 3" diameter to create a tight circle of light on the board.

Thanks to my buddy Charles for being uber patient and having to throw back to back bulls when everything was finally set.

This would have been so much easier if I had 2 or even 3 strobes so the dart could be lit from a different angle.

It's a amazing stock shot! To be honest the low key'ness of the shot makes the shot in my eyes!

Thanks treegirl. Charles had much more patience than me having to throw so many darts in the dark with a flash going off the whole time.

This is the kind of picture which makes me feel a miserable amateur. I never played with off-camera flashes so maybe it's an inspiration to start? ;-)
