“We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle.” ~ Marilyn Monroe
Christmas tree lights and long exposure photography really are best friends. It has taken me a few years to really perfect these but I am fairly good at nailing them now. Yes this is one shot. If you are interested in trying it my camera settings were F22, 18mm focal length and a 10 second exposure. I think this might be one of my favourite ones like this I have ever done. Everything just worked out and it is a Christmas delight. Also Marilyn was damn right!
Merry Christmas peeps! I hope you have a good one. We have family coming and it will be a busy day but I am also looking forward to time off over the Christmas period. I shall be making friends with my heated blanket, eating lots of yummy food, reading lots of books and doing some yoga all whilst the my Christmas decorations twinkle around me.
I was really hoping I might have found my mojo for writing towards the end of the year and even had a vague thought that I might do some sort of January Jump-start and try to write something every week for January but I just don’t think it is there. I am still here though, even if it’s only weekly with Sinful Sunday. I plan to persevere. I truly believe my mojo is out there somewhere, I just need to find it. Positive thoughts and all that whatnot!
