This is a fake bonsai, but I think it looks pretty nice for a fake plant.
Hopefully this will be a different type of entry in this challenge.. Might tank, but we'll see.
Long exposure, painting with light shot with a white LED light inside a clear plastic mug filled with water and baking soda to even out the light. The mug was then put inside a shirt to diffuse it a bit, and add some nicer definition to the light trails. Don't ask me how I come up with this stuff. :)
Editting included level adjustments, colour balance, sharpening, all done in Lightroom. Final sharpen and resize done in the GIMP.

Wow, I can't wait to read about your setup/pp for this. I think this will be on the front page soon. Fantastic shot, great lighting and the colors are lovely.
Nice idea. Only nitpick is that the bonsai specimen is not popping. I think perhaps a few changes - minor ones - with the composition might help. I like the blue background.
