I made these at Coney Island on Friday, July 3rd 2009. Coney Island have the fireworks show on every friday night. I love the image captures that special celebration of the evening. This is how to shoot fireworks. Set your camera on a tripod with a shutter release cable in manual mode, manual focus, set the apeature to F8 and shutter 2-8 sec at ISO of 400.
Camera specs: Canon 40D fitted with 17-55mm lens.
Here’s wishing you all a happy fourth and I wish you capture some great images this year!
