Light Streaks - Shay

By dragging the shutter, light streaks caused a texture of light. The light streaks are from "twinkle lights" that were strung in the trees in the background.

"Dragging the shutter" is when you deliberately set a long exposure to make action streak across the frame.

A wonderful effect, Shay...it really adds to the sense of motion and special joy that's expressed here. An attractive couple beautifully captured. Good idea for a unique sense of texture...thanks for the technique info too. MFC

Beautiful image, are the lights part of a window reflection? Melanie (mlynn)
