Description


I shot a string of lights in a darkened room, using a DIY heart-shaped bokeh filter. The lights are reflected on the polished floor below.
No post processing effects, I only adjusted the black level.

Exif: F Number: 2.8, Exposure Bias Value: -1.00, ExposureTime: 1/30 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 800, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 100.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 70D
