Smoke shots with a slight twist -C&C

Combining the passions, audio and photography. Thought I'd have a bit of fun and blow up some old speakers I had lying around by plugging them into the mains. Let me know what you think!

Very interesting photos. On the first one whats all the white speckles?

I personally like number 3 , i see some abstract in it, very cool!

Thanks Davor. The white speckles are dust, lit up by the bright backlight. I used 3 strobes total, two 430EX's symmetrically high front left and right (bare speedlights) and a Yongnuo 462 behind the woofer. The 462 is a great flash for $40 brand new, although the power adjustment is a little touchy. I only meant to turn it up a fraction for this shot but ended up completely overdoing it. Although it wasn't exactly the effect I was initally going for I ended up quite liking it.

Well, accident or not, the end result is awesome. Good stuff!
