Magnifico y bello documento de unos momentos irrepetibles. Un gran trabjo y un hermoso recuerso. Saludos

Muchas gracias, Jose Miguel, esperemos que si sean repetibles ... Un cordial saludo

Los fuegos artificiales los considero algo dificil. Que queden bien es una suerte de velocidad, medicion ... etc... la composicion suele costar que queden bien, esta me gusta como quedo .

Hello Ricardo.

 

A fabulous, and explosive photograph! Dramatic and vibrant colours.

 

How long was the exposure?

 

Regards, Nick.

A very pleasant picture : lights and darkness in opposition are great. Please give more technical details about it. congratulations. Pascal 6/6

As indicated in the technical details the camera was handheld with the zoom set at approx. 28mm. Lighting and contrast were changing constantly and sharply during the night part of the ceremony, so most of the time I had to shoot on auto, relying on my Nikon's matrix metering and praying for the negative film's latitude. This was long ago and honestly I cannot remember the precise exposure settings, but I would say it must have been about 1/60 f5.6 or so (I can remember that speed was better than I expected for handholding and no motion blur in the fireworks). I took four successive frames of this scene as the fireworks started to burst, and this turned out to be the best. Thank you for your kind comments! Merci beaucoup!

La verdad es que fue para mi opinion una fecha unica, imposible borrarla de la memoria. Muy buena fotografia. Te adjunto otra a ver si te suena... Un saludo y gracias por tu comentario.(Te he incluido un comentario en la fotografia de Montserrat. Si no te agrada que se vea esta fotografia dimelo, que la borrare)

Pues no me va a sonar! No me molesta nada, al contrario, no la borres, y gracias por acercarte a comentar.

Y ahora que me fijo en la bandera, esta tambien te sonara ...

Como pasan los anyos... si parece que fue ayer... Un saludo Ricardo
