SETUP
This shot of a smashing bottle was achieved by placing a piece of mylar
on a small background stand with 18 inches of the mylar sheet laying on
a concrete floor. A soft-light was placed behind the mylar with a second
soft-light placed at the front right of the impact area. I used a sound
trigger to detect the bottle hitting the floor. The sound trigger
was connected to a delay module which
in turn was connected to an electronic
cable release. I stood on a step ladder and released the bottle from
about 60 inches aiming at a small X on the mylar as my target. It wasn't
a exactly a bullseye but the shot worked well anyway.
