Long's Park Fireworks

A live band, cannons blasting, followed by a twenty minute display of fireworks…really…how can you beat that?  I should have known it would be a “told you so” moment.  For years, my husband’s buddy has been telling everyone, “You need to see the fireworks at Long’s Park!”.  Well, he was right.

Some fireworks touched the colors of the rainbow …

Some rained gold…

  

 

Some burst like rays of sun…

 

 

Some blossmed like flowers…

  

 

 

and some sparkled with electricity...

 

all were dazzling...

 

I can't wait to go back next year.

(Not sick of fireworks yet?  More firework pictures (my three fav) were featured in this past week's Wordless Wednesday - Cosmic.  Also, unless something else interesting thing happens over the next week or so...you can expect a few more fireworks in the upcoming week's Wordless Wednesday.)

Lesson 1: If you don’t know all the setting for you camera yet, switch your setting to Shutter priority (Tv) as you can set your shutter speed and let your camera adjust the aperture for you.

Lesson 2: 1”3 works as a good setting to put the shutter speed at (that what   these fireworks were captured at). 

Lesson 3: If the fireworks are being shot all over it helps to follow the little dot that shots off and snap the picture right before you think it’ll burst (that way the shutter will be open as the firework blooms.
