Fete fireworks by teodw

Fete fireworks

This is some of the fireworks from a local school fete held tonight. In the foreground is the Bunyip CFA truck ready for action in case the dry grass lights up from a stray firework spark. I didn't have a lot of time to plan these shots. Many things I would have done different including putting some mozzie spray on myself before I went outside. In this shot, I should have grabbed my mobile phone out of my pocket and used the torch app to light up the truck during the long exposure. Bummer I didn't think of that at the time. Oh well, we live and learn!
Hooray for Friday and having 2 days off work!
Hope your weekend pans out nicely for you too. Cheers.
Looks perfect to me Terrie. The colours is the fireworks are fab too. Fav for me.

Good shot, the contrast is great. Good idea light up the truck with your phone, recursive !!!

Hi, Terri, I'm your Get Pushed partner for this week. I enjoy following your project, so I'm going to give you a challenge for something else I enjoy. I love to travel. But having never been to Australia, I want you to play tourist and make for me a collage of 3 or 4 shots of must-see places in your area. Have fun. Can't wait to see what you have to show me!

This one is beautiful as well but I think I still like the b/w one a teeny bit better...it's just so unusual! Thanks for the tip about using your cellphone for added light...why didn't I think of that??? :)
