High speed photography is an exciting genre in the photographic field, but to take high speed photographs you need some specialized equipment
A lot happens in the blink of an eye -- a lot of pretty amazing things. But due to the way our brain works, we don't really get to 'see' these amazing phenomena. This is where photography once again swoops in to save the day. High speed photography allows us to capture the minute details of motion that typically escape the purview of human vision; methodology ranges from using a short flash exposure to a series of exposures taken in a fraction of a second. The method varies somewhat according to the subject, but the point of it all is
In a blink of the eye, a lot can happen.
Creative photographer Egor N presented a series of photographs titled Coffee time. Photographs taken by high speed photography, captured the beauty of splashes and sprays of milk.

High Speed Photography Flash Trigger by Sound or Laser Barrier (Arduino): Introduction High-speed photography can be a game of trial and (much) error. When I started experimenting, I would repeat the same action (breaking bottles / popping balloons / dropping objects in water / ...) while my camera was on burst mode. Shoo…
High-speed photography poses a technical challenge for photographers of all experience levels. Uncover top tricks for high-speed photography with creative advice from these eight professional artists.
Photo of a balloon being popped with a needle. (My lovely wife is doing the messy work of the popping). This is the one--and so far only--shot we took. The resulting dust cloud settled everywhere.

Here is something a little different: portraits of bursting bubbles! We took high-speed photographs of bursting bubbles, using BBs and an air rifle.
Basically high speed photography is a technique of capturing images with a remarkably quick shutter speed and mostly used for the scenes which cannot be seen with naked eyes. For high speed photogr…

Using high-speed photography, Evan from Photo Extremist shows us the moment when a fist punches through the surface of water. While his original tutorial
At first, I thought they get these shots simply by mixing some paint with water and than dripping it while manually trying to catch the very best moments with a hand-held camera. But the truth is that photographers use sound vibrations to generate drops and professional electronic flash triggers sensitive enough to detect a clear water drop or a bullet traveling at over 1,300 km/hour.
Have you ever wondered how photographers were able to capture a water splash, bursting balloon, or a bullet hitting a fruit? The goal of the high speed photography is capturing objects in motion. You can photograph events that follow a predictable sequence. In all cases you want to be able to detect a trigger, wait for an event and take a picture. For example, in order to capture a falling drop hitting the surface of water, first you need to detect the time when the drop starts falling. Next, you create a delay between the trigger and the event. Finally you take the picture.
Set the delay a little longer on this one. A bit more 'wiskery' perhaps? From my second shoot with my new digital sound trigger. A bit more thought to composition and lighting this time round. Strobist: SB800 on camera left, SB600 behind subject with plexiglass diffusor. Flashes on 1/64th power.

Below we present over 35 beautiful examples of high-speed photography, which are supposed to provide you with some inspiration of what can be done with high-speed photography. We also showcase some truly stunning slow-motion videos. All the examples are linked to their sources. You can also explore further works of the photographers we’ve featured below.
