And Then The Stars Came Raining Down 2…

Another fireworks shot from the 2006 Countdown display at the Esplanade…

I wish that I had better a better foreground/background to complement the lightshow. Tree-tops were the best I could find at the Marina Park 😛 It wasn’t easy getting a good exposure since the fireworks kept coming all the time: I was down to using f/22 and ISO 100 on my 20D. Despite that, it was difficult to get an exposure longer than 1.5 to 2 seconds to capture the light-trials. In the cases where I was able to rack-up the shutter speed to more than 2 seconds, the shots were spoilt because a flurry of new fireworks would have already shot into the frame. Fireworks aren’t exactly my favourite photography subjects 😛
