I took many pictures at this show(waking ashland). And they were all on differnt shutter speeds, just lucky that one of my good shots was on 2 seconds!
now all i have to do is pray...

I think this is exposed very well...good use of the flash to burn in the subject and not have a blurry mess. I like the blue outlines...almost looks like his spirit or aura. Very interesting shot. The mike stand coming from the bottom left is just a tad distracting...but you might not have been able to help that due to where you were sitting or something else. I like the expression that you got from him. Overall I like the image and way to make it work for the challenge.
over all its a nice capture however hving the mic stand out of focus in the F.ground is a major distraction and doesn't act as a leading line (which is what i think it is ment to be. i feel the image as a whole would be alot stronger if it were eliminiated from the framing.
i'm feeling it. I wish you got some without the mic stand. a big floating head on a black background with the light trails and that expression would make for some good black light poster material
I think you are trying to combine a 2-second exposure to show the motion with a flash to show the details. It doesn't quite work for me. The on-camera flash lighting is harsh and overpowers the rest of the exposure.
This is a great capture. I would prefer a little less negative space on the left so would have changed the crop slightly, but this is still spot on for the challenge.
