    These are really cool and creative photos! I wonder how he makes all that magical looking dust in the photos. It’s awesome!

    I think he uses wheat “powder” … just go to your local grocery stor -> baking supplys -> drop model in the “dust” let them move -> dust in the picture -> ad some flares etc in PS. I have seen such pictures with classical ballet dancers in black and white … awesome pictures .. but all the mess …

    Interesting. He really seriously pushes the ISO, which kinda adds to the discordance of the powder / glitter / starstuff.
    Generally, I get what he is going for, the connection between star death and human creation is an interesting and difficult thing to capture in a single image. If ya really wanna push it, use the matrix type multi camera coordinated axis rotation, to really swing us around the subjects. GIF is a limitation there, this leaves us a bit jerky. Kudos on the innovative thinking, no doubt.

    Really lovely stuff. I don’t believe it’s the technique that wows people. It’s what Egnacio has done with the dust and light. It’s real impressive overall and I will give stereography a go myself this weekend.

    What is the optimum amount of exposures and cameras to use?

    How did he do that? Any insight into it?

      Guessing here… Use 3 cameras at 3 different angles, triggered at the same time? Then create animated GIF.
