{Imhoff Family Christmas Tree 2011}

Next week I am going to post all about Christmas and share number of photos, but I thought I would leave you with this photograph of our Christmas Tree this year. It's my favorite yet, complete with ostrich feathers, glittery pine cones, and DIY ornaments. Enjoy!



I took this photo using my new lens, which allowed me to create the "glow" you see. This technique can be found here.

But in case you just want to stay on our page to keep it easy, here is what I did. I turned my fstop WAY low, I think it was at 1.8. My aperture was at 1/30 and my ISO was at 1600. This creates the "GLOW" effect and makes Christmas lights shine!
