Spark

Always fall back on Macro and low light when I don't have enough time to do anything else. This one is no different.

You are a bright spark. How did you find getting the lighting right?

[Abhijit]

@david68 I find it pretty easy to get the lighting right with low light shots. I only took about 4-5 shots of this. First one was very bright so it gave me a fair idea what I needed to do

I'm not sure what this is, but it looks very pretty in an abstract sort of way.

Sparklers are always great fun to capture. Love the muted tones.

[summerfield]

this is nice, ab. so now the question begs to be asked: what did you do to get that effect, like you just wiped a part of a glass window so you have the centre clear and all. i love the resulting effect. very clever.

[Abhijit]

@summerfield Nothing so clever. Just a shallow depth of field and focus on the burning sparkler rod instead of the sparks. fairly fast shutter speed so the burning part is not over exposed
