I'm not calling bullshit...but that picture...if the subject is staying perfectly still, what kinds of light are passing IN FRONT of him that are causing all that to happen? He's very close to the camera from how it looks.
I call two pics overlayed in Photoshop. I've done stuff like this before, long exposure, moving the camera at the same time.
I mean, what are all the light sources that are, on their own, moving in that fluid of a pattern?

The camera I have is a Canon IXUS 430.

I have a nearly 3 year old ixus Camera, set on manual, then choose the flash mode with the icon of the person with a light behind. Just cycle through the modes. Then when you take a photo move the camera a bit. It doesnt always work though. makes people look like ghosts a lot of the time.

use nightshot portrait w/flash.
basically it captures the flash as well as a delayed shutter. The flash is on the face while the trailing lights are created because he moved the camera while there is a delayed shutter thing.

they are just lights in the background... the reason that they are that in that fluid pattern is because they are still, while the camera is moving.It's not photoshop, its a flash with a long drag of the shutter like the others said.

I have spent many a drunken evening in that mode fucking about with short shutter speeds piers!
- jevad0

Very simple - I have a canon IXUS 400
change your settings to manual - the ISO to 50, and scroll through the flash setting until you see the head with the star (night flash)
then drink a lot and play away!

longinsh exposure (slow shutter), flash and the subject stays still. Fuck I take this sort of pic all the time by mistake.
