fireworks success

[blackfox]

carefull planning and setting up worked quite pleased with the results tonight .ive seen better but I at least now have a rough idea of what I'm doing
first shot view from bedroom window across the dee estuary at high tide , next two are the fireworks got more but these are probably the best

They look pretty good Jeff. What were the settings you ended up with?

Had to put it into bulb mode set time to 60sec at F8 and just let it run during firework bursts turning it on and off via an extension lead .. well out of my normal safety zone so pleased I got some useable ones


next night time event is end of the month walk round xmas light show at chester zoo

Isn't this an ideal subject for Live Composite?

Not sure the family will be happy with me dragging a tripod around .. will probably take a camera and a 42.5 mm f1.8 lens
