Photo Idea: Spin a Christmas Tree with Your Camera Shutter Open

christmasspin

Christmas 2016 has come and gone, but if you still have access to a Christmas tree, here’s a quick and neat photo idea you can try. Turn down the lights and your shutter speed, and shoot a long exposure photo of a lit Christmas tree while turning the tree.

What you’ll get should look something like what Lamnethian2112 shot above. You can also try light painting in other parts of the scene to make the photo even more eye-catching.
