Draped in Lights
by Mike Ezell

Taken inside the Opryland Hotel using shutter priority (13 seconds exposure). This shot took a long time to get because this is a popular spot in the hotel. I had about a bunch of shots with people in it, walking into it, or exiting it (you can enter it from about 5 ways). This was one of the few times I got a shot with nobody in it. Happy Holidays.

P.S. They go nuts at Opryland at Christmas. Over two million lights are used throughout the hotel. If you get a chance, Opryland is a beautiful place to visit for its Christmas decorations.
