Bouncing Sparkler

I am posting a bit early today because we are out this evening.

I took this photo at the same time as the one used for my New Years Day shot but forgot to post it.

I haven't taken any photos today because apart from doing my grocery shopping this morning I have stayed indoors, it has been another very hot day.
Great shot of the sparkler.

Great idea to sit it in a jar like this.

The sparks & bounces from the sparklers are super...

Love those bouncing sparkles. Great capture.

the scale is misleading. I initially thought it to be a huge sparkler in a barrell! Very sparkly shot.

I am staying indoors, because it is another bitter cold day

Beautiful. I saw on the news that it was 117F. In New South Wales. That is really hot. I saw many of the animals are really suffering from the extreme heat. Stay in and take care.

Very sharp shot of this sparkler Babs, you must have the proper settings on your camera! Mine would have been a blurry shot!

@littleconnie @lyndamcg @huvesaker @kjarn @casablanca @nickspicsnz @happysnaps @sangwann @novab @merrelyn @taffy @ludwigsdiana @moonmtn @mittens @beryl @jesperani @craftymeg @pcoulson @louannwarren @thistle @carolmw @susie1205 @seattlite @paul10 @megpicatilly @suzanne234 @kwind @pyrrhula Thanks. I took lots of sparkler photos because I wanted one for my New Years Day photo. I just liked the way the sparks bounced on this shot though.

@dide @pusspup @maggiemae Thanks, the sparkler is just sitting in an old marmalade jar on our garden table. All high tech stuff here, ha ha.

@peterday @henrir I stayed indoors the last couple of days as much as I could because it was so hot. Cooled down a bit today.

@happypat The settings were on manual ISO 100, f8 and about one and a half seconds if I remember rightly. You have to have the camera on a tripod though and this was in total darkness on our patio. I had all the lights turned out and had to use a torch to find the camera and tripod. David lit the sparkler. It is good to have an assistant who works well under instruction.

Based on your temperatures I think this could self ignite. Love the jumping sparks.

Fab shot Babs, very clever work.
January 8th, 2018  
super Babs. Looks great.
January 8th, 2018  
Wow this is awesome on black!

Fabulous capture Babs, looks so pretty.

So fun, I hope you have managed to stay cool

Fun sparkler shot! I was hoping to do a few of these with my grandson, but it was too windy and the matches kept blowing out! Nicely done.
