Guys, I wanted to wish all of you a Happy and Safe Fourth of July.
Started off with a couple practice shots. Then everything started up and I started shooting. Overall I shot just over 70 images, here's a couple I thought turned out pretty well. And finally one I played with in Post. Camera: Nikon D7000 Lens: Nikkor DX 16-85mm 1:3.5-5.6G ED Settings: Manual Mode Manual Focus Shutter: 8 seconds Aperture: F8 Even Exposure ISO: 100 All were shot NEF (RAW) |

Money can't buy happiness... but it's much more comfortable to cry in a Porsche than on a bicycle. |

When you are dead, you don't know you are dead.It is difficult only for others.
It is the same when you are stupid. |

Skylar mount the camera on a sturdy tripod set it on bulb so the shutter stays open and us a black card or you hand to start and stop the exposure by holding it in front of the lens, to get multiple fireworks on the same frame like a double exposure.

I was expecting the fireworks would be further away, so I brought a fixed 100mm lens. However, they were too close to capture a bunch of bursts in the same frame @ 100mm. Oh well... |
