Default Not your usual Christmas lighting shots~

(Or at least i haven seen one shot with long exposure on christmas lighting here..)
Just sharing a picture i took recently.



The picture was taken in the angle with the lights flaring against the lens.... (felt like those Starry Christmas cartoon~)

Thanks for looking~

Very nice shot you got there! Can share with us how you did it?
Can see that the lego statues are very sharp and the tree is like spinning.

I thought that the TS answered your question in his very first post?
Small aperture, long exposure. Patience to wait till there's no human traffic (or employ bouncer to keep people away ), and so on and so on.

I did use a tripod, but it's the freebie Nikon tripod. Is it the tripod or my technique?

This shot looks better.
