As we live near the local football ground, we are treated to a free show of the City Council's Firework 'Spectacular' each year around 5th November, and this year, it was held last night. I like to try to challenge myself and my camera and see whether I can capture any of the explosion of colour.
I was really pleased with these photos - for a little 'point and click' digital camera, I think it has done a really good job.
All I have done to the photos is to crop them down using Photoshop; other than that, they are as the camera took them.
These last two really show the explosion of the fireworks and the bright colours.
I particularly like the red firework to the right of this image and I think it is quite amazing that photography can capture and hold that split second. Fireworks are one of the most ephemeral of things - they last for such a short time, but we can now relive the moment. Where would we be without photography?
