The Luminous Effect

Another photography technique I've learned is the light luminous effect. It took a while to research how to photograph lights to create luminous effect. I've joined a flickr group and enjoy browsing the amazing photos taken by amateurs like me to continue learning.

I can't find our colored Christmas lights so our backyard tree lights works great on this project. After reading couple tips, I tried it myself. Indeed, luminous effect!
Aperture Priority Mode, F/5.6, Exposure: 1/2 sec, Focus Mode - Manual, ISO 400, No Flash, 55mm lens

I took these photographs last night, no any other source of light. If you do not have tripod put your camera on a steady area. I put mine on the yard fireplace flat side to avoid camera shake and blurry photo result.
