It's holiday lights time! This was filmed last year (what a different Christmas time in NYC in Bryant Park it was then), but I figured a few of you would get some good info out of it to learn how to photograph Christmas lights or how to photograph holiday lights so that they're nice and big and bright with beautiful bokeh in the background. Lens choice matters even at f/2 with a 135mm vs 70mm lens.
