The finale

The Stanthorpe Agricultural Show finished with a fireworks display (as all good shows should!!) It seems my little camera does fireworks quite well. This is a composite of 4 of the various types.

Wow, great work Rob. The last couple of tries I had at fireworks were total failures.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Yes, your little camera did great! Some of those point and shoot cameras can be pretty surprising with what they can do. Great composite!

@golftragic Thanks Marnie - but I can't take a lot of credit for this - my little Canon just seems to do them well. :)

@olivetreeann Thanks Ann - I fight with it a lot - but it does seem to have aced these! Cheers

[Jane Pittenger]

Marvelous job with the fireworks

[Sarah]

Wonderful shot

[Casablanca]

Glad you didn't choose this one for flash of red! The colours are super

[Sarah]

Thanks for your get pushed challenge. I might have a go at both. For yours how about going out and taking just one photo and then posting it without edits. This means you have to really think before you take it. Subject is up to you

[Rob Z]

@sarahlth Thanks Sarah - that's a great challenge ( I'm not very good at doing that!) and it also works in really well with the 52 week challenge for week 6. Sounds great. If you would like to have a go at both that would be wonderful. I'll be really interested to see your oil photo! Cheers Rob :)

[Rob Z]

@casablanca Lol Casablanca - you are a mind reader - I've got a b&w version for tomorrow!! (P.S. I think it's a bit boring in b&w!!)

[Rob Z]

@jgpittenger Thanks Jane - for once I didn't fight with my camera - it just went and did its thing so well!! :)

[Dione Giorgio]

Beautiful shot and a great seamless composition. Your camera does work very well to capture such sharp shots of the fireworks.

[Rob Z]

@sangwann Thanks Dione for your lovely comment. And the fireworks were just so good!

[Jacqueline]

Absolute stunning edit! What is better than a sky full of fireworks!

[Shutterbug]

What a great idea compositing the different types together. Love this. Could tag composite. I think this is an interesting way to use that.

[Rob Z]

@jacqbb Thanks so much Jacqueline - I was a bit undecided like you - just show one or put a few together. So it's nice to hear that you think this worked. Thanks for the feedback.

@shutterbug49 Hi Shutterbug - I went back and tagged it as "composite" - I'd never thought to do that unless it was going into the Composite Challenge. I had a look at the results from that tag - what wonderful produced images are on that page. Thanks for the suggestion. Cheers Rob

[Lesley]

I don't have a lot of luck with fireworks..this is great!

[Rob Z]

@rosie00 Hi Lesley - my camera seems to be a champ at this!! All I had to do was find the light-burst in the viewfinder and click the button! :)

[Fr1da]

Fabulous !

@fr1da Thanks so much Frida - the little camera did well!
