Periodic shaking or buffeting of magnetic flux tubes could generate magnetohydrodynamic waves which propagate along the flux tubes and dissipate energy in the chromosphere and/or corona. If we make an assumption that the G-band bright points represent flux tubes, then there should exist a relationship between the transverse motions and the brightening of these bright points. We tracked a total of 56bright points, obtained their velocity and intensity power spectrum. We also estimated the r.m.s. velocity, average velocity, r.m.s. intensity and average intensity of these bright points. We do not see any clear evidence for a relationship between these estimated quantities.
