Out From The Blue

Posted by Samuelw (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) on 4 December 2007 in Sport & Recreation and Portfolio.

A shot planned with much time and effort taking. Splashing out from the blue waters of the swimming pool and freezing water in mid air in such a shape. Spectacular Freeze.

Damn! This is great! Superb execution!!! (And I usually try to avoid exclamation points...)

Could you share the details with us: Camera/lens/aperature/shutter speed...

@Paulski: sure sure... let see

Olympus E-500 with Zuiko Lens at 14mm(which is 28mm in actual) f 5+, if im not mistaken.
Speed: should be 1/2600++ sorry cant remember.

I cropped the picture for security reason. The original shot is on my other server which im not connected to right this very moment :)

Ven from Cardiff, United Kingdom

This is nothing short of magnificent. I can't imagine me myself taking such photos. fristly, I can't get a model who is willing to dip in the pool for me and secondly I ain't bringing my only camera anywhere near or into the pool.

@Ven: Ohh i did many times of trial and error, many before i got this final shot. my model wasnt very please doing it soo many times...
