Chambers farm wood

I'm looking for totally honest feedback. I was bored with little to take so started messing with manually zooming during a longer exposure. Not sure the subjects right, but I'm thinking a striking image with bold colour in the centre frozen with the flash might work. Anyone tried it, love it, hate it? all comments and advice welcomed.

Again all feedback for this oddity gratefully received
