Advertising 101: Hong Kong Night Lights

My professors always taught me in my college marketing/advertising classes to get the name of your product out there. Here is my interpretation of that statement. Playing around with the zoom at Tsim Sha Tsui, Avenue of Stars, Kowloon, Hong Kong.

Nice shot ! I'm still experimenting with that technique... How long do you spend on the main shot before zooming? 80% of the exposure time? Less? I would appreciate some tips ! Thanks !
