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.
