Thanks everybody for voting and the comments. I would probably not take this picture if it wouldn’t be for the DPC Olympics III, so thanks Olympics for making me to experiment. I have just got a message from DPC that my picture was validated, which was essential for our result and the Gold in this edition of the Olympics. Thanks all participants of the Olympics and especially team Iceland for making us (team Poland) to work hard! The setup was quite easy, I constructed from 2x4s a stand where I placed big nail, put it in my bath tub covered it with black clothing and taped the fabric to the wall by the tub. I suspended the balloon on a very heavy plastic line attached to a curtain pole which I moved into the middle above the bath tub, and started experimenting with swinging balloons and exposure. I used my 580 EX flash in multi mode . You can set the flash to how often the strobe flashes, how many times and how strong is the pop. After experimenting with about 40 balloons I got satisfactory results. There was not too much to clean after. I should mention that the pictures were taken in complete darkness and the flashes of the strobe made the exposure. I submitted the picture which my family and friends liked the most, not the one I liked, which you can see here.
