#16 – Heads or tails?

The solution to many problems, flipping a coin!

For those who care about this sort of thing, this was taken in a single exposure using a flash (in this case a Nikon SB-800) in stroboscopic mode. Camera on a tripod, 1s exposure, pointed at a black background. Flash was off to camera left, connected to a radio trigger. When the shutter was open, I threw the coin and pressed the button on my flash trigger, which triggered the flash to fire at 20 flashes per second, capturing the motion of the quarter.
