And the rockets' red glare...

[Michael Gerald-Yamasaki]

Meant this for last week's theme but didn't get to it... I shoot fireworks when I can (interesting test of af, metering & hand holding )



This one is: D3 70-200VRI @ 200mm 1/100@f/8 ISO3200 matrix metering -1EV
NR, LAB curves, Topaz Infocus

Thanks for looking.

Cheers,

Great image, Michael.

Super image Michael! I love fireworks shot with a telephoto lens, very different and interesting. I like the colors and action a lot. Good job with all the technical bits and awesome job of hand-holding!

Michael, A very nice abstract explosion! I do wish you had a teeny bit more room on the right. I'd hang this one on my wall!!
