| I like the photo but how could you capture it with a 2 second shutter speed? Please advise. |
|
|
|

| Ok, Ok. For all of those that have asked.....I was lucky......I had only 4 bulbs and this was my forth shot. |
|

| Come on, please tell us how many bulbs it took! |

| How many light bulbs did you break trying to get this cool shot? |
|

|

| Just to be nitpicky, I'd have framed this a bit higher, and the surface the bulb is smashing on looks tilted. How many lightbulbs did you smash? :) |

| Very interesting picture, and wonderful example of stop action! I'm not partial to "posed" shots, but this piques my curiousity! |

| This is a superb shot. No background distractions, excellent focus, and excellent stop action. Has qualities of a professional at work. |

| Appears to be drastically oversharpened judging from the noise. A good idea, and well captured (cropping could improve the composition - too much room at the bottom), but something happened on the way to the web. |

| This must have cost a fortune to shoot. How'd you drop the lightbulb hard enough to break it and still catch the timing? And where'd all the pink dots come from ... is this scanned? |
|
|
|
04/17/2002 09:54:00 PM |
| Nicely captured. I wish the lightbulb would fill more of the frame or at least be placed lower within the frame. Perhaps shooting it in landscape would have been better. Still a well captured and sharp photo. |
|

| Excellent subject choice. Reminiscent of the Harold Edgerton work. No visible blur. |

04/17/2002 04:36:00 PM |
| Wow, great timing! The light is perfectly angled to pick up all the fragments too. Its a shame about all the artifacts though. |

| Too cool. I like the contrast of the white on black, and the sharpness of the glass shards. There is some fuzz in the black part. How many did you have to break? 10 |

| After breaking my dad's entire supply I changed my vote on this from 6 to 8. Good job! How'd u do that?! |
|
|
|
04/17/2002 10:45:00 AM |
| how many light bulbs did you need to break before you got the good shot? ; ) nice image, although the tilt of the surface above is a little odd. |

| I always wanted to try this but with a glass bottle of some kind, I don't know why but I'm seeing pink and green dots, are these like digital dust spots? |
|
|
|
04/16/2002 05:01:00 PM |
| Wow! Only suggestion is to maybe have the extra "blank space" above the bulb and not below. |
|
| Photographer found comment helpful. |
|
|
04/16/2002 03:57:00 PM |
| I love this one. Too bad about the digital hot spots, but you can't do much about that without post-processing. I wish the surface it was shattering on was either closer to or further away from level. |
|
| Photographer found comment helpful. |

04/16/2002 01:22:00 PM |
| must have been a heck of a job getting the timing anywhere near - unless you used electronic firing gear? |
|
|
|
04/16/2002 12:30:00 PM |

| This is shocking... How did you manage to take the photo? Or shoud I be asking how many light bulbs did you have to break before you got a shot you were happy with? Hehe... |
|
|
|
04/16/2002 09:19:00 AM |
| Really nice idea and shot, there a bit too many hot pixels though. I dont know if Blank and White would "clear" them up a bit. |
|
|
|
04/16/2002 12:37:00 AM |
| Wow, nice! Are the colored dots noise? |
|
|
|
04/15/2002 11:04:00 PM |
| Hope you had a stash of burned-out bulbs available! |

| Very Creative. Extremely sharp. The blown pixels (or noise?) is somewhat distracting to me. Would have liked to see it cropped even tighter. Keep up the good work. |

| Really cool. Other have to be wondering if this is scanned because of the colored specks. I'm giving you the benifit of the doubt and assumming they are just 'hot' pixels or something else. |
|

|
04/15/2002 02:57:00 PM |
| Excellent shot - you fired this off right at an incredible moment and got a great stopped/frozen picture. |
|
|
|
04/15/2002 02:28:00 PM |
| This is cool! Maybe I should have bought stock in GE before you started this project. Please message me and tell me how many light bulbs it took to get this shot! Excellent shot! My only complaing is that I think a more interesting crop could have been applied. There's a lot of emptiness in the lower half of this photo. The void in the bottom of this shot is the ONLY thing that is holding me back from a perfect 10. |

| whew..that had to be a mess to clean up. Good shot, but the speckles distract. |
|
|
|
04/15/2002 11:42:00 AM |
| that must have been one heck of a shutter speed |
|
|
|
04/15/2002 11:42:00 AM |
| wow ... being picky - the camera is tilted, and I think a more even lighting may have helped (ie on the left hand side)... otherwise, I hope u didn't have too many bulbs to clean up :) |
