Just an astrojax (a yo-yo like toy). With the confusion of the rules I decided to just shoot one capture using multiple flashes to make it look like there were more than just the 1 ball. The uncropped version has three instances of the ball but I cropped it (left side) as it didn't help convey the direction too well. Btw, the streak of lights comes from the balls itself which have a light in them.

Interesting but I dont really see motion in this. Maybe I need to come back after the challenge and take some notes on this one?

I like how the lights lead the motion on this.

i'm not sure what kind of 'apparatus' that is, but the focus is nice and sharp and it looks pretty cool. i think it may have benefitted from one more image.. maybe just as it entered the left side.

ok..i looked it up...neat toy.

These things are familiar to your regular viewers? Something tells me it must be good, but nothing much tells me why. I like the title.

That's really cool, and it turned out to be a very interesting photo.

Can't figure out what this is, but maybe including some more 'frames' would keep it from looking static and convey some sense of motion.

Heh - you got me to look up "astrojax." For that alone, you get a bonus point. I really like the trailing lights.
