You did pretty well to keep the colors near standard.
Were you shooting in a darkened room?

I'd love to be able to see these pictures. All I see is little boxes with a red little x in it.

It's not a trick at all.
The key though is having a flash with what's called "rear curtain synch capability and a camera that has "aperture priority" exposure.
I used a Nikon F4s with SB-25 flash set to rear curtain synch, camera set at 1" exposure and timer release, lens set at f11 using Fuji 200 speed film.
What rear curtain synch does is reverse the firing order. Normally the shutter opens and the flash fires IMMEDIATELY and the n the shutter closes so you have no visible blur fro something moving as action is frozen at the earliest possible moment. With rear curtain synch the shutter opens and then the flash fires at the last possible moment before the shutter closes so you get the blur of motion and then the flash freezes the action at the end of the exposure instead of at the beginning.
Once it's set up and pre aimed all you have to do is get your aim down while the timer ticks down and at the instant you hear the shutter open you shoot. Everything else from their is lusk.

Nice pictures LWW, thanks for posting them.
Nice quote in your signature line. I don't disagree with him, but really that is only part of the picture. I've found that there are a lot more impossible shots in pool, and the real trick to pool is knowing the difference !
