Splash - An apple hits the water!

Splash - An apple hits the water!
This is a genuine photo, not a photohop composite!

It was taken outside in the dark on a long exposure. A separate flash was triggered by the apple hitting the water, and 'some electronics'.

A safe landing ~ Well recorded, but should there not be a pip

Hi Nick,
Your visit is most welcome. Thank you.
I'm pleased that you have enjoyed it!
In all seriousness, I did think of making a PiP to show how I did it, but when I decided enough was enough (35 successful attempts) and was going to photo it, the rain started, so I had to abandon that idea.

Hi Erhard ,
Your visit is much appreciated. Thank you!
Glad you like it.
As you might imagine, there was a little more engineering behind this so as to guarantee a picture every time.... (Look at the EXIF)

Fantastic! I guess you used a tripod but this must have taken quite a few attempts to get it as perfect as this!

Hi Rosa ,
Your visit is most welcome. Thank you.
I'm happy that you had a good look!!
I guess you are right, the apple has reached the lowest point of the journey, hence its velocity is zero, so it is still!!
Best Wishes, and stay safe!!
