my canada day fireworks

[Bambi]

so this year it was hard because I couldn't find a setting on my camera that said 'fireworks' :shrug::laughing: so I put my camera on a tripod and fooled with aperture and shutter speed until I got some half-decent photos, but it was hard to tell until I got home. I chucked a lot but some were salvageable.
Waiting for them to begin:

That 2nd shot in the first post is a very pretty firework!! I quite like the composition of the last shot in post 2 as well!

[Bambi]

That's a nice set of firework photos. Great stuff. I agree, that 2nd last one that's getting all the comments is interesting for a firework.:thumbup:

Very well done for the first try. I wish I could be so lucky ... now with Stampede approaching furiously, I just might have to try this as well. I like them a lot, bambi, great stuff!:thumbup:

[Bambi]

thankyou everyone! you are too kind.

That second shot rocks...reminds me of a tree. :)

Another vote here for that last one, (second set), has so much going for it. Very well captured Bambi.
