Kim Taylor a photographer from Surrey is also an animal lover who photographed animals moments from one place to another with stunning details. What just might seem like an ordinary event such as a flight by an owl, Kim using a photographic technique called "Sequential Photography”and his homemade equipment captured everything from the first beat of the wings. Sequential Photography is an amazing art in which you can show multiple images of a moving object in a single image.
He said: "I didn't have any special equipment at the time so I had to design and build a special unit for the job. This required generating dangerously high voltage - 3,500 volts - and storing the energy in a bank of special and very heavy capacitors. The resulting equipment has three flash heads that flash simultaneously and produce nine flashes at rates varying from 2 per second to 500 per second."
