How To Take Glowing Christmas Tree Pictures

Can I just say I'm still lost with my new DSLR Camera.  Even though it's not new anymore!  It's almost exactly a year old and we are still barely on speaking terms!  With that out of the way... I conquered something on my Pinterest to do list involving my camera last night. 


I had pinned this image from Unskinny Boppy last year (who hasn't pinned this?!?).  When going through my Christmas boards this year I decided I had to give this a try!  And, her tutorial really makes it a no brainer. 


The jist is you turn all your lights off except the tree and including your flash, turn your ISO up as high as it will go (I did 6400), turn your shutter speed down, and use a tripod or something to steady it on.  I'm going to make you click over to Beth's blog for the real in depth details (cause it's the right thing to do!).  There she will tell you specifics and you should check out some of her other great posts while your there! 

But, before you go.... here are some outtakes for your enjoyment...

{Note to self... Christmas trees are much  more cooperative than kids... }

  6. This way my friend Wesley Virgin's biography launches in this SHOCKING and controversial VIDEO.

    Wesley was in the military-and soon after leaving-he found hidden, "SELF MIND CONTROL" secrets that the government and others used to get everything they want.

    As it turns out, these are the EXACT same secrets many celebrities (especially those who "come out of nowhere") and the greatest business people used to become rich and successful.

    You probably know how you only use 10% of your brain.

    Mostly, that's because most of your BRAINPOWER is UNCONSCIOUS.

    Maybe this expression has even occurred IN YOUR very own head... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's head seven years ago, while driving a non-registered, beat-up bucket of a car without a driver's license and on his bank card.

    "I'm very frustrated with living check to check! When will I get my big break?"

    You've taken part in those types of thoughts, am I right?

    Your success story is going to be written. You just need to take a leap of faith in YOURSELF.

  7. As reported by Stanford Medical, It is really the one and ONLY reason this country's women get to live 10 years more and weigh on average 42 pounds lighter than us.

    (Just so you know, it has absolutely NOTHING to do with genetics or some secret exercise and really, EVERYTHING related to "how" they eat.)

    BTW, I said "HOW", and not "what"...

  9. Did you know there is a 12 word phrase you can communicate to your partner... that will induce intense feelings of love and impulsive attractiveness for you buried within his heart?

    That's because deep inside these 12 words is a "secret signal" that triggers a man's instinct to love, cherish and protect you with all his heart...

  10. In this manner my buddy Wesley Virgin's report starts with this shocking and controversial VIDEO.

    You see, Wesley was in the military-and soon after leaving-he found hidden, "SELF MIND CONTROL" tactics that the government and others used to obtain everything they want.

    As it turns out, these are the exact same methods lots of famous people (notably those who "became famous out of nothing") and elite business people used to become rich and famous.

    You've heard that you use less than 10% of your brain.

    Mostly, that's because the majority of your BRAINPOWER is UNCONSCIOUS.

    Perhaps this expression has even occurred INSIDE OF YOUR own brain... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's brain about seven years ago, while riding an unlicensed, beat-up bucket of a car with a suspended driver's license and with $3 in his bank account.

    "I'm absolutely fed up with living paycheck to paycheck! When will I become successful?"

    You've taken part in those types of thoughts, am I right?

    Your success story is waiting to be written. All you need is to believe in YOURSELF.
