Canberra Day FireworkHi guys,
It's Canberra day here (looooong weekend 10/03/2008). I heard there was gonna be a big firework showcase in Commonwealth park tonight. So I dropped my research work, took my gears across the lake and camped for nearly one and a half hour . The firework was late. It was supposed to be on at 9:00PM sharp yet it didn't come up until 9:30PM. The firework was short. It was on for only 5 minutes! That's it! I shot of totally 20 photos, three quarters of them didn't have much fire in it. That left me off with about 5 photos. Here are the best 2 (Click for larger versions). My gear: Nikon D40 with remote ML-L3, 18-200 AF-S VR off, Bulb setting, RAW file, etc. The good news is that they will have Skyfire firework show this Saturday 15/03/2008. I really hope to have much better shots than these. Until then, enjoy!
Re: Canberra Day FireworkConsidering you only had such a short period to take shots I think you've got some cracking images... (pardon the pun!)... pefect exposure!
The last thing I want to do is hurt you... but it's still on the list...
Re: Canberra Day FireworkVery nice images, especially #2 and even better when viewed larger.

Re: Canberra Day FireworkLove the 2nd on esp with the clouds at the background!
Wondering if getting the fireworks' reflections on the water as well (if wide enough) would give a diff perspective. I might try that if i have the chance! Thanks for sharing the pics ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Re: Canberra Day FireworkI'm a bit bummed I'm going to miss skyfire this saturday. I have a football camp on and i can't make it. It would have been the first time i could get to it too. I hope we get some photos posted here so i can see what i missed
Re: Canberra Day Firework
Going to give it a try...will post the results sometime next week (if they are worth posting). I've found a few tips here that I will be trying out: http://digital-photography-school.com/b ... fireworks/ Is there any need to remove a UV filter from my lens before taking photos at night? Adam
