I covered up your explanation so my wife could try to figure out what it was... she thought champagne bubbles. Without your explanation I don't think I would have gotten it either but you're right... pure magic! I'm gonna keep this one. I'd wish you good luck in the contest but I don't think you'll need it. Your colors, angle of the shot and DOF are perfect. The out-of-focus pinpoints of light, octagonal in shape, remind me of being a child, taking my glasses off, and sliding under the Christmas tree (I was considerably smaller then)... the tree lights farther from me looked like this and was one of the coolest memories I have as a kid. This brings it right back.
If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

I much appreciate all the comments I receive about my images, but please excuse me if I don't always reply. My interest in Caedes is exceeding my time available!
My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
