I've seen some beautiful images that were made this way. The photographer
just opened the shutter and then walked around in the dark popping the flash
to illuminate selected features. This is frequently done in caves where a
big area is lit with a small light source. Fun stuff but probably takes some
experimentation to be good at it. /jim

Of course you can do the same thing with any camera with a "B"
setting and a shutter release cable. And you could use any light
source, even a flashlight.
