Those are remarkable shadow patterns! Thanks much for posting. Few would have thought to shoot them.

Thanks -- i was too lazy to go out and get a solar filter Saturday.

Here is another. I really like them.

Strobe lights, especially the better ones you are using, are fast enough to stop action such as the cartridge falling through the water. Could some be the disturbance of the water distorting the image? Are all strobes firing simultaneously? What happens if just one strobe light is used? Is focus exact on the object once dropped? Camera shutter speed has nothing to do with stopping this action--it's all the strobe light. You just have to chose a shutter speed that allows the strobes to sync properly with your camera.

I think the different temperatures of the all the lights I'm using is throwing things off. I've turned my white balance down to a cooler temperature to try to compensate.
I'd like to add strobes with softboxes to my kit, but I want to make sure I understand what I'm doing with them before I write that check.

You just reminded me I need to check that this new monitor is calibrated correctly!

Lovely woman, interesting pose, no clutter, but I think your light is the problem as the skin tone is off a little. Has that faintly space-alien look...

When mixing types of lights, it's tough to get skin tones right.
