Christmas lights

Since our Christmas tree is still up and lit, last night (Saturday) I set out to see if I could produce the kind of zoom burst I've seen others do here with Christmas lights. After a fair bit of experimentation I've come to the sad conclusion that my camera is not capable of that. Ah, well... I did get some interesting shots of other types that I like, one of which I've posted here. I also learned more about long exposures with tripod.

Whatever you did to get this is working. Beautiful shot

Well done.

You could try using Photoshop to add the 'zoom' to your image....
The colours are lovely here.

It's a burst of something, like a festive explosion!

I like this so much! The colors and the burst of light.

Delicate zoom burst but ever so effective. Fav!

Still a beautiful shot and I thought I recognized it on my Christmas card!
