Happy Birthday

It must be someone's birthday somewhere.

Ordinary

An ordinary shot of the fireworks.

All Over

Maybe this is what a Pink Floyd light show looks like.

Senko Hanabi

Senko hanabi are the kind of fireworks used in Japan in the early 20th century. Here is an image I found that shows why I think this shot looks like them.

Christmas in July

These fireworks look like a Christmas tree.

Red Glare

A nice silhouette of the telephone lines.

Just Weird

I don't know what to say for this one.

Some of Each

A Christmas shot.

Surreal

By adjusting the focus when taking a long exposure of fireworks, you can get some as bokeh and some sharp.

Glorious

The more I look at the shot (a single image) the more I like it.

A New Take on Fireworks

with effect

without

Last year I saw a post on Colossal about a photographer who took shots of fireworks with a macro lens. I thought that sounded [and looked] cool.

Both shots done in camera.

Sparklers

This turned out to resemble sparklers.

Electrical Problem

This one reminds me of a movie scene where the wiring fails.

Streaks of Color

A shot from the Nakayama summer festival.

Nakayama Summer Matsuri

It was fun to see the fireworks last night.

Life Finds A Way

I like the 90 degree angle this flower made to get some sun.

Waiting for Sunset

There was no sunset this night either.

The Marvels of 1950's Technology

I think it is time for an update.

The Mist

A misty / foggy summer morning.

Perspective

I was trying to get a sense of perspective when I shot this.
