Love the shot. The colors are stunning. If I may make one small suggestion which may not be valid but, to me, the cup seems slightly tilted to the left. Maybe straighten it if so?

**cdurfor** · 12-27-2010, 10:23 AM

That is wicked cool... How did you do it?

**rparmar** · 12-27-2010, 11:05 AM

Good stuff!

Excellent!

My minor OCD wants it to be straightened.

KarenH · 12-28-2010, 02:46 AM

I want it straigthened too, but that's the only thing that's bothering me about this shot.
Cool idea, well done.

Frogfish · 12-28-2010, 03:18 AM

Very cool - looks great !

Come on spill the beans - how did you do it ?

timh · 12-28-2010, 09:21 AM

A string of christmas tree lights, I assume..?
Definite bonus points if nothing was moved especially to create that shot except the camera

I agree with you guys..This needs a little tilt and correction..Thanks for pointing it out..

Thanks for your comments guys..he lights that looks as Bokeh's are nothing but the Christmas color lights that was tied to a pole. I placed the Cup at a good distance and focused on the cup. Making the lights in background out of focus making them beautiful bokehs.
