Fire-work

Thank You..

Vladimir, I like all those patterns and geometry of the exploding fire works in the sky they are very well captured and in harmony. However, what I like even better is that you show a point of reference rarely seen in fire works pictures and that is the ground from which they are all fired into the sky. There is detail there on the ground that one can see all these people watching the fire works standing, sitting, etc. It contributes greatly to the story of this photograph.....unique work and a excellent image. regards

agree on all counts with Dara, nothing more remains to be said by me

I am so glad that you approve my concept. Thank you, my friends. 3/3 nobody: I am so happy I steel have your attention..

The ground image and the smoke is the turning point of this photo. IMHO, if you loaded a smaller size on PN, it would have been easier to view. One has to scroll down quite a bit to appreciate the image. 6/7 and Compliments.

The ground details really adding to the beauty on the sky. Great shot. Best regards.

Great capture. Well executed and composed. Best wishes-Jim

I have never seen a firework display with the ground included. Great idea marvellously executed....well done and Regards.

Una buena toma. Saludos

Neobicna ali veoma efektna prezentacija vatrometa. Apsolutno se slazem sa prethodnim komentarima da je fotka dobila jos vise na kvalitetu sa ukljucenjem donjeg plana odakle se vide tragovi lansiranja ovih igracki. Izvanredna ostrina i ekspozicija. Svaka cast, Vladimire! 6/6

Hi Vladimir- You asked me how I shot the lightening. I was lucky enought to have a great vantage point. I used a tripod and cable release. The settings were 21mm f/5.6 @30s. I pointed the camera to the area of the sky that was most active and just kept shooting 30s exposures. It was an amazing show. Needless to say I was overjoyed to have gotten a few good captures out of it ( there were many bad ones). Thanks for the support and best wishes-JIm

Thanks a lot, sounds like a good advice and I will try it out...
