Simple, a shot of the lightbulb. Only post is white balance. I couldn't decide between the one I posted and this one:

I like the original submission. The bokeh in this one is a little too wild - a much more subdued effect in the other shot.

I likes it

Both are very awesome, shwaip. My fave is the one you posted.

late, but this was my text shot. Compy troubles

Very nice, maru! Focus is good - it leads in from the front, and the background has a nice bokeh to it.

The colors are a little bland, but what are you going to do. Might consider dumping it into B/W next time to see how that looks - always an interesting option.

Marushka

Thats a great idea, snark. I might play with it a little more. Thanks!

with a little tint

and closer, it turned out i had some neat detail in the "M"

I think the "M" is the best one yet.

I like that one as well.

And shwaip, I think I prefer the one you posted in results a little better, too. (It would never have occurred to me to take a shot of the printing on a lightbulb!)
