Fireworks 2012

For the past few years we have set off our own fireworks for a number of reasons. For one, we do not have to worry about finding a good place to sit. Secondly, the kids really enjoy setting them off. Especially my son and sister (who is a big kid in her 40s). We live on a cul-de-sac which makes it a perfect place to set them off. I have attempted in the past to try to take photos of fireworks. They just never really looked good. I attempted it again and feel they came out pretty good this round. 

My equipment included:

1. tripod
2. Nikon D300s
3. 105mm macro lens (too lazy to change lens)
4. wireless remote

My settings:

1. f16 to f20
2. iso 200
3. 2 seconds

Here are six of the ones I liked best

This one is my favorite

 

 

Until next time! Happy Snapping!
