Each year at the close of the show/fair they let off fireworks. We have a great vantage point on our deck. This was shot by changing the focus at the end of the exposure causing the little flares at the ends of the light trails.
I really like this with the sharp focus on the centre of the burst and drifting out of focus until the back burst is just bokeh - really effective and very different. FAV
Beautiful capture of fireworks! I have yet to attempt photographing them myself. I never seem to have my camera & tripod whenever there's a show. Well done
@dibzgreasley You just set up as normal with your focus on the fireworks, then when one has started just turn your focus and it creates the little flare. I probably should have used a shorter exposure so I wouldn't have too many in one shot.
@nicolecampbell Thanks Nicole, I had a lot of wins and received the aggregate (most places) and the champion. Yesterday's pic has a link to the photo that received champion :)
