She might be a ghost.
Ha!
Is there a link to the original image somewhere?

Thanks andy,
The trail of the torch doesn't lag behind, it goes in a wavy line in
front
of the figure. Also, there is no motion blur in the figure of the
person,
just that she is see-through where there is bright light behind her...
Does that shed any more light on it? (if you pardon the pun...?)

Jonathan,
I suspect that it depends on the camera. If yours has rear curtain
sync built
in then
you could always slave a studio flash to the on-board flash.
The shot was made using rear curtain sync if the trail of the torch
lags
behind the figure in motion.

Hello,
I've been asked to re-create a shot by another photographer for a
job
tomorrow evening.
The picture is shot in a church (quite dark and lit with ambient
light) and
has a woman with a torch, who appears to have a ghostly quality
about her
(she is 'see-through' but frozen by a small amount of flash). I
believe it
has been shot using the 'rear curtain synch' mode, though I may be
wrong.
My question is; can you only use rear curtain synch with on camera
flash, or
can you use it with studio flash, or even a combination of the
two? Never
really done much stuff with this technique and am a little nervous
about it,
all help and tips gratefully received!
Cheers,
Jonathan.
