Beautiful; beyond words. Lighting gives very mystic, trance feeling.

Nice starts Jan , Akira and Chip

Interesting rocket like buildings, where is this ?
-
Armando - that building is the Oregon Convention Center in Portland, OR. At first I did not really like the shape, but it has really grown on me over time. I should start a thread on that building, it is a recurring subject for me :)

Matching the colors with Water Melon Mojitos? 8)
I like the non-symmetry balancing. And the color schema.
already posted in a different place. Nice lights stars on board were as good as food and drinks :D

Thanks Anirban, personally I think it would be better with a little more room at the sides but the Mojitos thought differently at the time ;D

Jan, this looks nicely stoned. :D I'm curious about the location. Is this just a decoration on a sea shore, or does it have a serious Buddhistic meaning?

Thanks, Armando.

Purely decorative at a beach club 30 clicks above Barcelona, a friend of mine lives there whom I visit usually a few times a year (though not this year somehow).
Btw, on the left side of the image you can see a fishing rod stuck in the sand, the light on top alerts the lazy fisherman something is taking off with the bait.
-
Ja, thanks for the details. I like the taste of the decoration as well as that of your image.
-
Light stars occur more frequently than one might imagine.
-
A light star can even become one of main motives...
-
These are all gorgeous but, oh my . . . Akira and Bjorn! I wish I had prints of those images!
Jan, love the scene. Now I wish I had a monito! :P

Thanks, Tristin. Glad you like it!

Bärbyleden north of Uppsala at night.
D700, 105/2.5 Ai, f/22, 13 seconds, ISO 100 (Lo 1).
-
Same lens and f/22 setting. The endearing beauty of a Nordic summer and being able to enter the water without clothes.
-
Mongo had missed these. Some really wonderful effects and results
-
The 300/4.5 ED-IF makes some nice stars! The Walimex 85/1.4 not so much...

I like how the smoke renders. :)

Very nice additions
Happy holidays to everyone

Francis, Boomtown is a true boom 8)
The wheel makes it special!

This is absolutely no match for the artistic quality of the previous contributions but the ask is for light stars only :)
Cat's eyes under flash, found on a backup of a previous phone. I don't think smartphones have diaphragm blades so I guess the diffraction is caused by the slit iris, which would explain the 4 rays.
-
For once, an interesting cat photo !!

Looking at the position of the center of the pattern and thinking about it, it is probably possible to have 2 patterns per eye, at the high and low end of the iris, which would make it even more interesting :)
-
Laser eyes getting you in focus. Take cover!
This is one interesting cat photo so different from all the others.

Thank you, Thomas

After some days with cold, this little star came to view in the ice rose in the window.

1. Sun star through teddy bear cholla. Tucson, Arizona. D800, AF-S 20/1.8G, 1/125s, f/16, ISO 100
2. (Not a sun star, but related!) If you are going to stick your camera into a cholla, these sorts of things happen.
Love the 20/1.8G. It excels at many things, including sun stars and up close. (The 28/1.8G is good for sun stars, too.)
