Wrap your subject in light. I shot all of these photos wide open to get the out of focus lights.

I just created this setup to show how putting lights in front of these nutcrackers and using the Christmas tree in the background gives a great use of perspective.

I think I liked the Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 EX DG APO OS HSM shot at 200mm the best.

The wide shot here shows the setup.
Another idea is maybe use candles.

I also stopped and smelled the flowers today in our yard. Just a parting shot for this post.

All comments are reviewed.This is done primarily to eliminate spamming. Please be patient, I maybe on assignment and unable to review right away.
But to increase meaningful conversation, sometimes it’s necessary to reduce the not-so-meaningful bits. Here are the kinds of things we’ve been deleting in recent posts. Please avoid these types of comments:
One-word comments like “Cool!” or “Thanks!” While we appreciate the congrats, we’d love to hear more about what exactly you love, and (even more importantly) why.
Shameless self-promotion. Comments that contain links to your site within the body or otherwise encourage folks to visit your blog are a no-no. If you’d like to increase traffic to your blog, there are other places than here to do that.
Multiple comments by one author. We’re glad you want to be engaged, but please give others a chance to speak, too.
Really long comments. Let’s just say that if you need to take more than three breaths to read your comment, it’s probably too long.
