Welcome to the first official OSD photography challenge. We’ll be bringing you a challenge twice a month as a fun way to inspire you to improve your photography skills.

This week’s challenge is all about lights. There really is no other time during the year when lights are as prominant as they are during the holiday season. From the twinkle of holiday lights, to the glow of the fireplace, lights really make everything feel more magical.

Our challenge to you this week is to capture a photo of “lights” in any way you wish. While this isn’t a requirement, it might be fun to try using a photo technique such as bokeh, sun flare or making your lights sparkle.

We’re looking forward to seeing all of your photos. Here’s some inspiration from the Creative Team to get you started…

    I love Christmas lights! I’ve just started experimenting with shaped bokeh. Here’s one I posted on my blog: http://catshy.blogspot.com/2011/12/sneaky-peek.html
