Taken in December 2005 in Chesterfield, Derbyshire, UK.
I wanted to photograph the Christmas lights but the weather was turning nasty, so I set up my tripod underneath an awning left by a market trader and experimented with zoom bursts on one of the decorations.
This started 'out' and zoomed towards 'in' - it's had levels and curves adjusted a bit, but nothing radical apart from that.
