In Topic: high-speed flash-powder photography

29 April 2010 - 11:03 AM

I'm convinced that the bikes are actually stationary with hidden supports in the photograph in question. You can see the individual spokes, and I'm pretty sure that 1/250 wouldn't be fast enough to freeze them in motion, especially with the depth of field.

But that's not really what I'm asking! What I want to know is, could you use an open shutter and generate a very short flash using pyro? Specifically, the pyro of the early 20th century?
