Fascinating High Speed Photography...

I'm really into Photography nowadays... but I still don't have my camera yet, saving some money so I can get one... for now I'm appreciating these photos I found on the net. Its what they call High Speed Photography. From what I read, HPS may refer to either or both of the following meanings. The first is that the photograph itself may be taken in a way as to appear to freeze the motion, especially to reduce motion blur. The second is that a series of photographs may be taken at a high sampling frequency or frame rate. The first requires a sensor with good sensitivity and either a very good shuttering system or a very fast strobe light. The second requires some means of capturing successive frames, either with a mechanical device or by moving data off electronic sensors very quickly.

Here are some samples...















Fascinating indeed!
