Hey, Thanks Mikey and Lonnit! I appriciate your feedback!
Mikey, It was a natural breeze. I had to make few attempts and I was not sure what I was getting till I downloaded. Its actually two sets of flowers, the ones which are moving are pretty close to the camera and the others are a little inside. Comparison of the sizes of the flowers will give you an idea.

You're lighting the way for us, Cat. This is very innovative. Was there a breeze, or did you do this mechanically, somehow? Nice. Cheers, -mikey

Thanks TV and Bob!
I am glad that you liked it!! The discrete light of the flash-strobe gives a totally different effect as compared to a continuous light from a flash-light. Taken in my backyard in almost darkness, I had to wait for a fresh breeze strong enough to cause movement in the tall flowers, yet not so strong to affect the short ones. Much of the time went in studying, calculating exposure and waiting for the right moment, than firing the flash and painting with it. I might try it again.

Now THIS is creative and artistic use of flash. I'm scratching my head. Very well executed. -tv
