 A six minute exposure gave me time to light the tree with repeated flashes from a speedlight, then wave the blue light around before finishing off with the orb. Fun but a little bit spooky!

If you just did that smoky effect, I would have noted you one point higher for being very creative. As is, this is still nice, just the orbs are overdone in my mind.
