Using sophisticated equipment, high-speed photography masters are able to stop the moment and illuminate one critical moment. If you have time to catch the right moment, high-speed photographers can catch the moment of impact, explosion, movement and make art out of it.

Speed photography is an amazing way to capture and capture a picture that we may not always be able to see. A lot of fun things happen as soon as we blink an eye, so lightning fast that we only see the result. Stefan's high-speed shots combine the sophistication of fine art and the fun of watching an explosion. In most of his photographs, a brave model with a red manicure holds various objects that are fired at with a pistol to achieve an explosion effect. The resulting paintings are not only beautiful, but mesmerizing, not to mention that they are a little dangerous.

Liquid sculptures by Martin Waugh are intricate, amazing shapes. Liquid sculptures are forms created by nature itself in the process of splashing water or other liquids. It is quite difficult to photograph such sculptures, you need to wait and not miss the right moment. The combination of movement, color and shape makes the shots unforgettable. And the liquid sculptures themselves depend on the duration and trajectory of the droplets, on the moment of taking the picture and the properties of the liquid. The author assures that he resorts to Photoshop solely to retouch the image, to increase the saturation of colors and sharpen the image, but by no means to change the picture itself.

Peter Wienerroither's images of light bulbs breaking and burning show how much detail can be captured in high-speed shooting. Each tiny shard of glass is illuminated and frozen in the air, and you can even hear the sound of breaking glass.

Boris Bos's high-speed photography master uses a simple yet elegant combination of apples and water. The moment of impact is captured with the graceful shapes of water droplets that form when an apple falls into water.

Jasper Nance is, without a doubt, one of the brightest high-speed photographers, using weapons in her creative process to shoot various objects that she wants to catch on camera. She photographs the explosion and splash effect itself. Her pictures look like research, like a scientific experiment.

Hannoc's unique photos show what happens to the balls when they are punctured or popped. Stopping the exact moment of the breakthrough, the snapshot presents us with the most beautiful sight.

Johnny Chung Lee is a versatile photographer. His love for photography manifests itself in every picture he takes, regardless of whether it is a portrait, a landscape, or a beer bottle that shattered into small pieces.
