stroboscopic self portrait, stroboscopic photography

Stroboscopic photography consists of a flashing strobe light and a camera with an open shutter (bulb position). Stroboscopic photos must be taken in darkness and with black background so that everytime the strobe flashes, a still image is taken of a moving object at that instant.

This specific photo was shot with 30 seconds bulb exposure and three flashes. 30 seconds was enough time to change the hats, although this was done in absolute darkness. Two assistants with flash units on the left and the right were used.
