A complicated 8 sec exposure.
Set up two strobes. Open lens and fire strobes manually. This captures face and extended times allowd the christmas lights to be recorded. Wife then lit the sparkler and surrounded me just as the shutter closes.

Personally I was shocked not to see this ribbon. But the achievement is in the photo, not the ribbon. Good placement anyway. Beat me again! (Yes, I know that's not hard ;)
Appears to have been edited beyond what the basic rules allow, but I'm sure it's a trick that falls into the guidelines, so good job. And props on the Burt Reynolds look-alike. 10
Not sure how you pulled this off, but it certainly makes a great "Electric Horseman". Good job. (It almost looks as if a continuous fuse was burning around him).
