New Year's Part 3-A Full Moon

The picture below was taken at full zoom on my Olympus.


Now, what if we zoom in?


 Look at all those craters!

New Year's Eve Part 2-Fireworks

...and now for the Fireworks!

Once Again, I used the bulb setting, and a tripod. The hardest part was guessing where the fireworks would be, how high they would fly and whether or not I was quite level in the darkness.







The Sparklers had to be my favorite, I used the bulb setting to capture all the light movement over the period of several seconds. I love the picture below, the sparkler just lights up Andrew's face behind them as he looks on in wonder.



 Oops! Dropped the sparkler!










And now, for the Grand Finale!




New Year's Part 1- FIRE!!!

My family started off our New Year's celebration with a bonfire in our backyard. I used a tripod and the "Bulb" setting to capture the light from the fire.



Cool panorama right? Haha, not so much, it's called a black background which blends with the edges of the picture, making it appear wider. :D








Ever wondered what it would look like if you threw a smoke bomb into a fire?















...I Love Bonfires...
