That wasn't the easiest of shots to get right. Great shot and great fun!

Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

Cheers David.

This particular shot only took two to get right but some others I have taken of outdoor Christmas lights recently have taken 6-8 shots to perfect using manual focus and exposure.
