Hello, Here is a serious question, did any of these require flash? If not how on earth do you capture the lights? Do you use a tripod, or hand held? These are terrific by the way! Very nice work, merry Christmas and have a wonderful New Year in case I don't reach you again! Same for everyone here, and god bless you!

No flash was needed. It's all a matter of proper exposure with the camera's settings. When they are correct, enough light is captured without any flash being required.


Yes, I used a tripod. Despite what Ken Rockwell says, it was necessary. [:D]


Merry Christmas!

Not as magnificent as the ones above but still wanted to share and say<span style="color: #ff0000;"]<span style="font-size: medium;"] Happy Holidays to everyone!!

I changed my photo above to reflect somewhat of an Orton Effect that I just learned in Photoshop Elements (the only thing I know how to do so far in PSE). I may not be using the effect correctly but I think it gave a better effect to the glowing lights.
