SFF 8Aug gone wrong

illustrious · 9th August 2005

I was late and at the wrong location. All my shots were gone, either with lots of heads covering 3/4 of the fireworks or hand not steady enough. Time to get a taller tripod.

Flower

Rain

Shots taken with ixus700.

Nice "flower" for the first shot.

sometime,without even shooting,we will not know what we'll get.

i think pic #1 looks really interesting. a different way of looking at fireworks.

Hi Claudia,
I think the flower is pretty cool on the first w/ its distorted lines
Time to get the taller one for the 14th hheheh!

Come to think of it, no matter how tall my tripod, if there's people infront of me, I won't be able to capture the fireworks too. Unless I get one taller than me. But then how will I press the shutter? LOL.

from my pov i dont think it has gone wrong in anyway, i find it creative and making the best out of what's available to you

#1 gets my thumbs up

so therefire i think one of a good way is to upgrade your digital camera. so that you can fire it via a remote control. but then again, you still need to see if your composition is good when they fire the fireworks...ha...think the best way is be early and fin a good spot...but i do think that the pictures you posted is not too bad really...like people have been saying, its really how you look at it and what you want to tell the viewers.

Agreed. The first one is interesting, like an abstract work of art, or looks like a red flower on a stem.
