Fireworks my way - 2 by joansmor

Fireworks my way - 2

I was awake and I had a camera so why not. Don't know the first thing about taking fireworks and not going to fight the crowds for a show that lasts maybe 15 to 20 minutes. But these aren't bad for being viewed from my driveway. I just set a low aperture and held the shutter down and waited. Once I actually got one explosion. The rest of the time it takes so long to complete that you get several fireworks going off. It was kind of fun. But I won't win any rewards for my fireworks photography. This is over the garage and through the trees.
Lovely shot and great color

@lynnilou Thanks fir commenting on all three. In the picture it looks like the garage is exploding but it is actually several fireworks going off at different moments.

@debbie3108 It's about not being afraid to try. I've had some monumental flops (even posted a few) and some lovely surprises like these.
