Sonicare

Big thanks to everyone who got this on explore!!!!

Image of water being dropped onto a vibrating sonicare toothbrush, shot at 1/8000 of a second. I needed the extremely high shutter speed due to the crazy fast vibrations of this thing. I tried this shot with milk (looked kinda odd) as well as dish soap (didn't splatter), but I think I like this one the best. I taped the toothbrush to a cheap tripod and when turned on the whole tripod vibrated like heck. Hope my downstairs neighbors don't hate me =]

Setup: The only way to get the high shutter speed was to use a flash in high speed mode, so I used an OC-E3 off camera cord as it was the only thing that would work for this setup. Flash was about 45 degrees to the left, and I used some white paper on the right to bounce the fill. Red poster board was placed behind the toothbrush.

Gear: 580exII, Canon 50D, 100mm macro lens, Tripod for camera, second tripod with toothbrush taped to it, shutter release cable, toothbrush, water, posterboard, paper

I Heart My Toothbrush

I figured out the other night that the timer on my toothbrush is messed up. It's supposed to buzz every minute so you know how long you've been going but it's not working right. Sometimes I was brushing my teeth for four or five minutes or maybe just 45 seconds. I finally timed it and now I'm using the kitchen clock.

Been for a drink with a friend tonight. Now want to sleep but instead have to make calls to set up my filming in Australia - why does the flippin time difference have to be so huge! Once, when I was working on a show called Four Corners in Australia I made a programme which required me to be up working in Australian time, in Pakistani time, in British time and in American time (east and west coast)!!! I had to work pretty much 24 hours a day until I finally dropped from exhaustion! Sleep, oh how I love you - where art thou now?!
