How to Photograph Fireworks Displays
By DIY Maven
Darren Rowse of DPS fame tells us the ins and outs of taking spectacular fireworks display pics. Here's the rundown:
- Tripod--use it!
- Remote release--get one!
- Framing your shot--do it!
- Focal length--wider is generally better!
- Aperture--think small range!
- Shutter speed--bulb mode is best if you got it!
- ISO--low!
- Flash--forgettaboutit!
- Manual mode--take charge!
- Experiment--and keep track of the outcome!
To make Darren's suggestions actually make sense, visit this page on DPS.
Any Happy 4th to all my fellow Yanks!
