We made these at the Sr. Citizen Center this week. We had been studying traditions of Christmas, and to wrap it up, we made a string of Christmas lights. They really don't pass as real, but they are close enough to be cute.
Don't expect it to do well (surprise, surprise), but I kinda liked it.

Lighting seems a little harsh. The red background is quite dominating and takes the focus off the lights. The composition is not great either I'm afraid - three of the lights intersect the border. Might have been more effective to have a much lower down viewpoint and have more of a DOF effect going on and having just one of the lights in focus, that would have given you a clear focal point and taken the emphasis off the red surface.
This would be a much more interesting photo if you plugged them in. Come on! Do it, do it, do it! The photo might be improved by using a different angle on the camera, less straight on, and focus on one of the bulbs with the others out of focus.
