Description
A microsecond is an SI unit of time equal to one millionth (10−6 or 1/1,000,000) of a second. Its symbol is µs. One microsecond is to one second as one second is to 11.574 days.A microsecond is equal to 1000 nanoseconds or 1/1,000 milliseconds. Because the next SI unit is 1000 times larger, measurements of 10−5 and 10−4 seconds are typically expressed as tens or hundreds of microseconds.

I am looking to experiment further with high speed photography

how? 1/2?! that´s really new!
For me this kind of shot should be on full burs @ 7 FPS and 1/1000 minimum!

I could have used 1 or 5 Seconds, it was taken in fairly dark conditions so you can leave the shutter open for longer. The exposure is taken using the flash.
Example- set dslr on tripod, focus on your subject in the light and then once your in focus switch camera over to manual focus (or it will forever try to focus again in the dark) turn the lighting down , have an external flash on another tripod or stand pointing at your subject and use say a shutter speed of say 2 seconds, start the shot pop the balloon and using a high speed sound trigger with a delaytimer (you can get one on eBay for cheap around £20-£30 upwards) which will trigger the flash when you pop the balloon).
The flash will capture the subject and this high powered short burst of light coming from the flash is what freezes the subject. I hope this helps, just remember to experiment with your settings. I have another high speed project that I will come back to at some point as it's fun to do
I bought from EBay from a seller called Pantelis51

So you are going into highspeed photography, well interesting; well all I can say that be a difference to go along with your photo-manipulations and macro photography styles. Now I have not seen what happens when a balloon pops but I can see the echo of its original shape in there though. Also all the micro projections of material from the balloon as it deflates is interesting as well, not normally seen.

Thanks, I have a few ideas but my equipment was faulty. A dam sham as I had waited a couple of weeks for it!! Never mind

It is a shame, but you are innovative and make do with what you have.

That's very kind of you, thanks. I do try different things some times. Some times they work but some times they just look rubbish!!

An with that rubbish you van make an abstract mosaic

True, some times I get a photo that isn't that great and make it my mission to try and turn it into something special

Thanks , This is what really blows me away . . . . One microsecond is to one second as one second is to 11.574 days!!!
