How the bear attacked the aspen / Comment l'ours a attaqué le tremble

I made this image as a simple hi-key multiple-exposure image of the dark claw scars on the thin white bark. What blew me away was the way that the *action* or process of the attack is depicted here, with the bark flying, dark particles trailing . . . very long after that totally unseen action had occurred. We see here a representation of actions which in fact the camera never did see.

 

How did that happen? Somehow it was created by the ME and ICM, totally in-camera, with sharpening and balancing in simple Lightroom. Somehow the unseen and un-photographed became depicted in this image.
