Busted! :)

Dark garage on the center stand. Shot at f16 with an 85/1.2 lens, open for 10 seconds, while I "painted" it with a flash with my right hand and spun it with my left. ;)

Great idea! While you're painting, maybe hit it from the left with a blue gell in the flash?

That was my first attempt, so I'm looking forward to trying more stuff like that. I actually "painted" it was an LED flashlight, thinking the color balance would be less distracting.

Here's another. It doesn't communicate "motion" like the first, but it's got a nice feel to it, I think:

Great concept. Hmm may have to try painting with light and I think I still have gel material left from my DJ lighting days.
