 This is a pic of a "ChatterRing" toy. The object is to get all the rings spinning around the main hoop at once and keep them spinning. I set this up with a single tungsten light with a 1.3 sec. exposure (via gray card). Used my 10 sec. timer and set my on-camera strobe to bounce off the ceiling and used second curtain sync. Wanted to show the motion, yet stop the action as well.

The colors and motion of the ring add to the shot.

Fun pic. Kind of a "The Emperor got his butt kicked back to Kindergarten" kind of feel for Star Wars fans...

That looks really cool! Great colors. The composition is perfect. I don't usually like the motion blurred images, but I really like this one. Good luck.
