The Madison Town Fair - Fire works

We had been to the fireworks that concluded the Madison town fair at the Madison Highschool grounds. Madison is the neighbouring city to Morristown (The fact is that there should be atleast a 50 Madisons in the United States - of varying sizes). We chanced upon this when we had been to Kushal's 3rd birthday party at the Vijays' and one of the guest - Paul - made a mention of the fireworks.

At the end of the fireworks, I realized that I am still a novice in photographing fireworks - Only a few decent ones came out out of the 50 odd photos I clicked. The very less response time available for focussing and the timing of the click are the things that I found that I should be working on. There were a couple of very good photos - if not for the bright spot of the blast in some and the smoke after the blast in some other... Way to go forward for the photographer in mine...

Meanwhile look at the few of them that came out decently well...

For fireworks, you can try the bulb mode. Best outputs will be with a tripod and a remote.

I dont have the bulb mode as a preset option - So, was trying manual focus & manual adjustment of the shutter timing and aperture.

Yeah, kai virakkaathirikkan kallu kudikkenda gathikedilaanu... especially if you dont have a tripod.. ha ha ha.. (just jokin :) )

Thank for for providing comments!
