I know, there's lots of smoke there. However, it seems very subdued, out of focus and hidden. It is fun to capture, and assumes great shapes, but I'd try to capture it with more lighting - something that has to come from additional fireworks. Although I've taken similar images, I haven't concentrated on this particular type as a study. For ME, I would start with a tripod, multiple shots over 15 minutes, concentrate on focusing, and look for the smoke cloud photo lit up by a mass of spectacular fireworks. Don't know what I'd get, and I do commend you for the effort. (Wordy, aren't I.) Good luck in the challenge. |
