When the island moves, a bright light shines from the center and then the camera cuts away. In the next shot we see, the ocean looks like water draining and the island is gone. Of course we don't actually get to see the island disappear.
Where did the island go? When did the island go? How did the island go?
Here's the reactions of the characters around the island, in the zodiac raft and on the helicopter to the sky turning incredibly bright when Ben turns the frozen donkey wheel. It's similar to the time when the Swan station imploded.
In the screens:
Locke, Richard Alpert and the others watch from their camp.
Sawyer and Juliet watch from the beach.
Daniel and some red shirts watch from the zodiac raft
Jack, Kate, Sun, Sayid, Desmond, Hurley, Frank and Aaron watch from the helicopter.
