Default Bright Lights

I've only just started out on photography and have realised how much effort it takes to get the perfect picture. Since im new to it all i've only been taking shots of objects and other things around my house so that i can get a feel of photography a bit more and then gradually move up to better things. In this picture shown i used a glass vase on a set of draws in front of some bright christmas lights, i wanted to see how the glass would look in front of the lights and if it would give it a nice looking effect, which it did and im mostly happy with it.
