We all feel like this sometimes....

No fish were harmed in the making of this photo (honestly).

7x SB-800s focused on the background at 1/128 power for a duration of roughly 1/40,000 sec. Camera was a D300 w/ 80-200mm 2.8 @ f/8, ISO 500.

This idea has been in my head for some time now. Thanks to Fielding, Kevin and John for helping to make this a reality.

And BTW: The fish is really in the crumbling tank, NOT photoshopped in!

    How the heck? I thought the SB-800s can only sync up to 1/200? Neato.

    Excellent idea! How did you time the shot correctly?
