Thank you RC. I was pleasantly surprised with the effect this gave. It was one of our assignments for Mastering Light and Flash I'm learning a lot with BP. #3538857

Debbie, this is terrific. You've given me another technique to add to my list of stuff to try. It's long! :)

Robyn, Donna and Steve;
Thank you for your kind words. And Donna - thank you for mentioning that I was in PhotoFlash -- I never knew until today! (I'm still pretty new to all the ins and outs of BP!

Robyn -- By camera flash moving upward - I meant that I depressed the shutter, the flash fired and I started at the bottom of the tree and moved the camera up, ever so slowly to the top of the tree before the shutter closed. It can do some pretty neat stuff. #3679306

Robyn, Donna and Steve -- Thank you for your kind words. -- And Donna, if you hadn't mentioned the PhotoFlash, I would never have realized that I had been in PhotoFlash! What a pleasant surprise.

Robyn -- The technique I used was that while the shutter was depressed and the flash was doing it's thing, I was, ever so slowly, moving my camera from the bottom of the tree upwards, continuing until the shutter had closed. It was a lot of fun. Here is another one I did while moving my camera from one side to the other in my garden. #3679329
