hi Adam
Sorry but the dots are very distracting, but the sharpness is excellent!
cya
Lol... very unusual treatment, adam...
I love the tack sharp flower though! What settings did you use?

I think the dots are the best part.
Without the dots, it won't be a Christmas flower, just anoter boring flower - I thought

haha...
I used
ISO 200
1/40 sec
f/5.6
and in photoshop, I resized it, and burnt the background a bit.
Then added the christmas lights....
I think your flower has an aphid problem!
Radioactive aphids at that!
Hi Adam,
I couldn't work well but the idea is to mix your christmas lights with some christmas spheres you see... I like golden ones... Then play a little with blur and soft focus..
Here you have my try

Hope you like it!

Well I had to give it a try too. I thought, why not go the whole distance?
Here it is (sensitive people should use sunglasses, please):

Both of these "remixes" stay faithful to the spirit of the original - I like them both - it's fun to see different interpretations of Adam's already abstract original.
Wowoowowowow! that really has been "fixed me up - photoshop"



Even has those lights in the background, like in the Christmas pictures, where the lights at the back are blurred.
ahhh tired, must go to work soon
