Wow. The transparency you've achieved looks great.

How does that happen?

Thanks :-)

It's the flash + the long exposure.
With the flash The leaf was 'frozen' and illuminated. With the long exposure the lead had time to move on and leaf a weaker 'trail'. Also the sunlight 'erased' some a bit of the leaf.
Hope that's understandable :)

I see. Basically, the lens was left exposed to the light for longer so more "frames" were captured...

Neat.

Yes that's it ^^
For example if you take a shot of a person in front of a sundown.
Then you got 3 options:
1) Shoot with flash - You will see the person bright against a dark to black background because the weak light of the sundown can't be captured
2) Without flasch - Will require longer exposure time. You will see the silhouette against a beautiful sundown. But no detail of the person because the light was coming from behind him.
3) Combine it - Then eventually such effects as in this one will occur

Unfortunately not all cameras will support the third option.

So...it's basically like a half-Flash with less light?

Well.. now I'm confused too :D
I think it's kinda full flash just with a exposure time near to the time which would have been needed without flash.
So the flash brightens up the near part and the long exposure the background.
Of course everything is then made a bit darker in the camera because otherwise it would be too bright.
At least it's what I think how it works :)

I was positive surprised how it turned out :-)
Took a couple of shots before with unsatisfying results :)
