Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it's one of those christmas light sets with like 500 small lamps after each other, photographed out in the night, but not focused on the lights but either to infinity or, the more probable, real close up, to create this beautiful effect.

Thank you all for your comments. Yes, these were christmas lights. They were hangin from a wall in threads, maybe 50 of them in one thread. As a "normal" subject matter, they are rather boring, so I set me up to approach that subject matter differently. And well, here we go... :)

cheers

Very cool abstract habakuk, definitely cool when we find something beautiful in the mundane.

Thank you too. Yes, Dorman, I think the real beauty is buried in the not so obvious things. And to discover them, one needs to stop using labels and categories - just look, wonder, enjoy. Beauty is ubiquitous.

That's very cool! The really bright little guy in the lower-right corner takes my attention away from the rest of the image, though... otherwise, this is pretty mesmerising to look at. :)
