 As usual not sure that I've captured the intent of the image but the site makes me think of different pictures to take and sparks my imagination. This was shot in my garage and used a strobe and long exposure to get the look I was after. Still kind of recognizable to me but I'll see how the voting goes. Predict that my average will go down again as this is not your standard DPC type image.

Surprised by the voting so far the picture is scoring better than I thought it would and is similar in style to some of the other entries.

Really happy with the result on this, didn't think it would finish in the top half of the challenge when I submitted. Thanks for the comments.

Awesome! I assume that this is a stroboscopic flash type shot. I thought about doing one, but did something else instead. However, the effect is really quite cool!! I had no idea! -9-
