Nice idea, and good execution - what are you shooting on? It's not really water, is it?

Sticky lights and a boot

Hey there from the Critique Club

Camera Work/Technical: I like your choice of settings that yielded every element in crisp focus, as well as the tones and colors that you captured. I also like the long exposure that you used to make the Christmas lights flare into stars.

Lighting: Also very nice. Your use of the Christmas lights provides a very warm, inviting feel to the image.

Composition/Content: Also very strong, in my opinion. I really like how the window sill draws the eye into the image and the boots, Christmas lights and city lights hold it and keep it moving.

My Opinion: I think you really stretched this one to meet the challenge, as did most of the voters. When I'm going through voting, I rarely look at the image titles. Rather, I rely on the content of the frame to meet the challenge. I have been hammered on this at times myself, so I fully understand. I think that it is a strong image, but it just doesn't fit into the challenge.

Yes, IT looks like an USB cord... IT isn't very interesting per si, although the shot is well done technically. IT doesn't grab me, sorry.
