Good artistic take on the theme, Claudio. B&W works well here.

Great idea and execution, Claudio ! This reminds me of the learning curve I'm still having to go through regarding flash usage. The grainy treatment effect on the hand resembles that of etches by Escher.

Hi Claudio
I'm sitting here looking through all the images, evaluating which ones I'm gonna give my points tonight, and this one went straight into my shortlist. Very nice.

Thanks for the comments

Just experimenting with long exposures and flash. These effects can also be done easily in post-processing, but I enjoy creating them in camera. But I had to revert to post for the grainy look ;-) For Mattana: Funny you say "pushing the boundary" since I had originally considered it as a title. But then the visual did not say "push" loud enough to me so I came to a screetching halt on that plan.

Terrific effect. I like how it make the picture alive with motion. Pushing the boundary?
Cheers
