Border Town

[lizheaemma]

Living on a border town one gets two sets of fireworks, this is good as I didn't get to the Canadian ones...

I failed miserably last year at fireworks so this year I did a bit of research before heading out..
15 second exposure but I was holding a piece of black plastic over the lens between fireworks, in an attempt to avoid
overexposure and maintain colours.
While it's way better then last years, I'm sure there is still lots of room for improvement...
C&C welcomed and appreciated!

I like this photo! It really has a sense of movement to the burst of light. The water fountain and bridge on the sides compliment well, imo.

Very nice one. All the way around. My goodness just to be a really bad nitpicker (since I don't like to just say good or just say bad things) a little intsy teensy little bit of the left side of the photo could be trimmed to center the explosion. I think it would add symmetry to the photo but still has the fountain of light to break it up some. But that is just me. And I am not good at photography! lol
