Top marks.

Thanks Rob, Rob, Will, Gary, Donna, Jeff, Mick, Laura, Peter, Jules and Carl. Great to get such a fast and positive response. Smile

Will, it's a combination of slow shutter speed and a zoom lens. As you take the picture, you zoom and light trails are the result. This was also given a little twist by moving the camera during exposure, to stop the lines being completely straight. The figure is David (deviant) standing in front of an O2 mobile phone shop window, full of christmas-tree-type lights (mostly blue ones). Smile

Now this is creative... the man looks very devil like which really adds to the effect.

I just looked at your portfolio and you have some of the most creative images on EPZ. Added you to my list of favourites so I dont miss future great shots.
