20100419 - Home Made Eruption

With all the excitement, I thought I'd have a go at making my own. It's authentic too: this is talcum powder - with luminosity inverted to turn it black.
The tracing comes from the flash being set to strobe at 199Hz - it looked more interesting than just random specks.

Canon EOS 5D ,Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
1/2s f/14.0 at 100.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Very cool effect. No flying around the house until the cloud settles.
