Fireworks Photography Tips
This seemed timely…
Okay, I love night photography, though, from my photos you may not know it. Frankly, I think the whole Flickr 365 Days self-portrait project is starting to wear on me. But, you know, I committed to it, so I’m, well, committed to it!
Anyway, like I was writing before I got sidetracked, I love night photography and there is an outside chance that some of my readers will have the opportunity to take some photos of fireworks this weekend. I know, I know, it’s a wild, crazy idea, but, since it will be Independence Day on Saturday, I thought I’d link to the Wired HowTo Wiki article on HowTo Photograph Fireworks. The nice thing about this article over some others I’ve seen is that it covers all kinds of cameras, not just the digital SLRs. So, even if you’re using a “point-and-shoot” or an iPhone, there are tips there for you, too.
And, with that said, in all seriousness, have a happy, safe, Fourth of July weekend.
Thanks, I was planning to try out my new camera this year at the fireworks show, and now I will have an idea of what to do before I even go!
