Photo of a balloon being popped with a needle. (My lovely wife is doing the messy work of the popping). This is the one--and so far only--shot we took. The resulting dust cloud settled everywhere. Strobists: ISO 200, ƒ/5.0, 4 sec., Sigma EF-500 DG Super @ 1/32 camera right, Vivitar 285HV @ 1/16 pointing up from below washing the background (probably should have been snooted...I'll have to make one).
