unique n nice fireworks with the buildings n stuffs.

obewan · 10th August 2005

Very good composition.

The fireworks just boom at the right spot to fill up that empty space of the
sky.

megaweb · 10th August 2005

3rd shot is very nice.

Overall exposure is great !

Spectrum · 10th August 2005

If you know that the fireworks is not going to exceed the tallest building in the angle where you take the pics, my POV is to shift the camera angle lower.
Which means to leave a little space between the tallest building & the top edge of the pic.
This also reduce the amount of distortion as I noticed wide angle devise is being use.
Anyway, nice angle & neat pics.

All the best dude!

Nice to include S'pore skyscaper with the fireworks.

I wish to do that but not sure the locations...

Garion · 10th August 2005

Nice shots, with an unusual perspective.

Like the 3rd shot best.

Outlook · 10th August 2005

Like 3rd most ! Good job.

On 06/08/2005, shoot from Raffles Hotel 50 floor, but predicted the firing location wrongly (Thought was from Marina South). The fireworks are great, but all have a dark building in the pics composition. Buildings look nice in your pics. Will do some home work and see what to do to my pics.

bwilly, obewan, megaweb, Outlook: Thanks! Glad you like the pictures~

Hosea: What location? Firing location or shooting location?

Spectrum: Thanks for the insight. I hope i can aim lower even though my tripod was tilting forward and resting onto the corridor wall (to avoid the top and side of corridor to get into the pics)
