Singapore National Day Fireworks Display

Celebrating National Day

SINGAPORE SKY IS SPARKLING. Beautiful image,Alec.

Spectacular celebration! Happy 40th birthday to Singapore.

Well captured Alec. I was wondering if you could get some tips on shooting fireworks scenes in terms of aperture and shutter speed settings. I have a firworks image in my recent submissions folder - if you could throw some thoughts on it I would appreciate it.

Beautifully composed. Multiple exposures? How long each? Any PS arrangements?

Fantastic evening shot, Alec. Best regards.

Congratulations, Al. Awesome.

Cherlyn, Sircar, Richard, Michael thanks for your kind comments.

 

Amar, Arthur, yes the image is made from multiple exposures then layered together.

Fireworks at F/11, 3 secs with tripod provide enough light to show the distinct trails which otherwise will be overblown.

Wow... fantastic shot Alec.

Thanks Alec, glad you could share the details of the settings. Now all I need are some fireworks. By the way, I didn't even think of the multiexposure setting.

Wonderful fireworks image ... you really DO know how to use a camera!!

Alec, Great shot again. no trail in firework wounderfull. i m woundering is the building in foreground are Cut/Paste ? plz share this too. i will appriciate that.

Thanks guys for all the favourable comments. Bolti, definitely not. The image is not manipulated except for the fireworks which are merged in and processed. This has to be done otherwise the trails of smoke plumes will deteriorate the whole night sky.

Thanks for the response Alec.

 

Incredible capture of such a difficult subject! 7/7

I have seen fireworks, Alec, but so neat, beautiful flowers in between lit cityscape is new. Very original and very well done.

Great shot, love the fireworks....I have just retruned from a trip to Singapore and malaysia.

Great please lovely people.

My 6/6 is now 7/7 Sorry about the time.

Excellent composition and light!

Another WOW image from your collection. This one is so dynamic you can feel you're there, looking at this fine display from a hotel room balcony. Great work. -David
