    Kristal, Nice shot! How did you get the starburst effects on all the streetlights. Very Nice!

    I should let Kristal speak for herself, should come with long exposures naturally.

    Hi Bob, I did a long exposure at F22 to get the starbursts. As Ralph said it might come with long exposures naturally, but I'm not so sure about that. Glad you made it last night. I enjoyed seeing and chatting with everyone. Our Meetup group is turning into a fun community!

    Bob, Ralph, and Kristal, the short answer is that it depends on the number of blades in the aperture ring on your lens, the star points only appear at the smaller apertures. Here's a really good link for the long explanation: http://www.cameratechnica.com/2011/02/24/how-to-create-and-avoid-starburst-highlights/

    ThanksAndy Johns, for providing the technical answer to my StarBurst Question. We're fortunate to have your level of expertise in the group. I wonder how may of you in last Tuesdays group now know how many blades are in the aperture ring of your cameras. My Nikon D90 has Seven!
