Death Rays At Christmas
Lens: DA 18-55 WR Camera: K5IIs Photo Location: My living room, of course. ISO: 80 Shutter Speed: Above 6s Aperture: F11 
Posted By: Racer X 69, 10-28-2019, 06:01 PM

Zoomed the lens during exposure, about 72 seconds, (one of the few reasons to even have a zoom lens), to get this.

Haha, nice! You just taught me something new. I'm surprised I've never thought to try that.
