 I know. Not really a starburst. I tried, but I needed a smaller light source. I've done it with a speedlight, but it was too much trouble to dig one out and get it set up during the Oscars.

I shoot starburst all the time. Generally, shooting into the sun partially obscured. But, I did not get the right opportunity.

Why did I call you "Larry", I wonder.

Weird...

Interesting starburst, artfully deployed and integrated into the overall image. Fine, moody atmosphere.

Nice effort, and I like how your face is lit. But in terms of starlights you should have used (a) much smaller light source(s), I think.

lol .. i like that you made an effort ..
so did i about 7 hours before this went in for voting ..
the lighting in this is magnificent .. you are definitely a magician when it comes to lighting .. and other stuff too of course ..
the starburst makes me think you're looking a bit too relaxed .. look out behind you ... it could be the arrival of aliens .. !! .. ;)
anyway .. its a wonderful image for the challenge .. :)
i'm not voting yet .. :)
