Good shots.

When I saw the "bee" text I was half expecting to see it being splattered by a bullet!

LOL thanks for the comment.

A Bugatti Veyron

wow liking the bullet split in half!

How did you time the shot with the camera ?

Thanks Peeps.

@ auroan, i use a sound trigger and microphone attached to a DJ strobe. when the mic pics up the noise of the gun it sets of a quick burst of light from the DJ strobe and freezes the image, there is a controller for the timing, i shoot a few bits of plastic to get the timing right then try on the subject. its done in darkness to so you have to have everything set up befor the lights turn out. all i have is a small low powered led just enough to see what where im aiming. the camera is on a long shutter of about 1-2seconds.

ah, the exposure and total darkness........ thats where I'm going wrong

Great work

Some great photos (And even better on your site )

I have a few but they are not in this league so they can stay on my pc

wow liking the bullet split in half!

Me too, I thought that was amazing

Great photos. Also love the one being split in two.

Taken with my camera phone.

Excellent pics:thumbup:

Very cool - I've got a book on Harold Edgerton's work which is brilliant (rifle bullets through apples - that sort of thing).

Taken with my camera phone.

Thats amazing, iv managed 1 lightining shot on a long shutter, but with a camera phone, WOW!!

Thanks Very much People. I Appreciate the kind comments.

@Kaiserb uk. Harold is the man who inspired me to have a go.

The same way i did this lol

no seriously, it was done with a sound controller, Mic, and DJ Strobe, once its been timed its just a case of hitting the target with the pellet.

Assorted F1 cars at Sepang....really ancient digital camera, so hoping for better results at Singapore this year with a new TZ3....oh wait, it's going to be at night.......bummer.

Nice, what sort of lights will be there, /Car/flood lights etc, with some good panning I bet there can be some fun pics to be had.

But saying that i own the panasonic FZ50 and I have only 1 night pic.:( (not the best night cameras, must be the small sensors)

Fastest thing I've photographed? Probably an SLR McMerc. But it was parked at the time.

Probably this one:

Average speed 3629 km/h (2286 miles/h)

Photographed with Sony DSC-H9 through a 25mm eypiece in a XT-8 orion reflector

Awesome moon shot:thumbup:

Not as fast as (m)any of the above, but I really wished I had my camera with me yesterday, as I was barely feet away from a grebe chasing baby chubs - I'd loved to have been able to catch them jumping out of the water to escape! it would have been Countryfile photo comp time if I'd succeeded, I think!
