Shot at a nightclub a long time ago using a technique of zooming while shooting to create the light streaks. The guitar player had led's all over his guitar, and he was mostly in darkness, so the flash was on and the lens zoomed.

It was shot with the Canon Rebel XSI camera. The challenge was to get a good shot, but I got a great one by using the zooming in and out technique along with the flash to freeze the move. The effect was done 100% in camera, not with editing.

Thank you!

I was just experimenting with this today, but couldn't get such a clear ghost image, that effect is excellent! Curious what your shutter speed was?

It was shot at f4.5 and shutter speed was 1/2 sec. ,ISO 200.
