This is one of those rare occasions when I knew exactly what type of photo I would pick for my favorite of the week. I knew it had to be a fireworks shot. Not only is it from my favorite holiday, but I did a lot of prep work to get the photos and am really proud of the results. Picking which firework shot was a little harder! I decided on the shot below as it is not only visually appealing, but it captures my perception of the scene so well as it brings together the beautiful setting with the amazing fireworks.

Settings: ISO 100, 18mm, ss12secs, f/11 (on tripod, shutter on bulb)

ReplyDeleteThis is a fabulous shot! I am amazed at your ISO being so low for it being night time and still getting enough light! But you said you used a flash? Great job!
ReplyDeleteNo flash, but I did use a tripod and a remote so I could have the shutter on bulb and keep it open as long as I felt I needed to. Thank you!
