Thank you all for your comments! Very much appriciated!
Jacko now owes me a beer (or was it a case of beer?) for getting the first 20D ribbon. :-)
Butterflusis, rayg544 and Jmlelii: I used the hammer to crack the bulbs.
Zoomdak: I only had one shot per bulb. :-)
wkoffel: No audio trigger here unfortunately. My friend Vidar and I listened to Velvet Revolver, and on beat he cracked and I shot. :)
Kiwiness: They were all new.
I started off with some cheap bulbs from a Nille shop, the bulb quality wasn't good and the bulbs cracked instantly. I then bought Ikea bulbs, and the result was the same. Finally I bought some Osram bulbs 60watt (this is high quality bulbs). Vidar had to use FULL FORCE with the hammer to crack the bulbs, and when they cracked they practically exploded. At one point I got glass hitting me, and I got a couple of small cuts in the face and on my trigger arm.
The whole experience was very enjoyable. Most fun shooting experience for a challenge.
Again, thank you ALL for your comments.

| Nice captures, definatly fits the theme. One take per lightbulb (unless multi shutter burst). II am wondering how many takes you had? |
|

|
|
09/26/2004 01:43:08 PM |
| So wonderfully crisp! Perfect in b&w! The only puzzle to me is the silvery rod coming down from the top, but I assume that's the object that broke the bulb. Classic exercise in stop motion. |

| Wow, this is a great shot and a great idea. It's just a little dark (I didn't see the hammer at first glance) but I don't really care because the exploding glass is really cool. |

09/22/2004 04:26:46 PM |
| Wow! When I was previsualizing something for this challenge, I could see this image (albeit without the hammer) and also one of a balloon popping. I didn't submit anything because I had no idea how to accomplish it. Hopefully, your description will tell me. In the meantime, fantastic timing, great focus, really wonderful detail, contrasts and tones. Exactly what one would imaging for a "Stopped Motion". Congratulations and good luck. |

only one comment and one question:
Comment: WOW.
Question: any many bulbs had to give up their life for this shot?! |
|
| Photographer found comment helpful. |
|
|
09/20/2004 07:18:40 AM |
| I love this photo but I hate the fact that it's super over sharpened. it totally takes away from the image. I would have given this a 9 but I'm gonna give it a 5 instead. |

|
09/20/2004 03:14:02 AM |
| This is such a great motion capture. If I'm being picky, I would say that the orientation of this shot looks like it would be better either 90 degrees CCW or upside-down since something seems odd about the hammer standing on its head. But that's a minor point - this is a really great shot. |
