Fireworks Over Taos
Manual focus (prefocus before it gets dark, tape it down), Canon 17-40 on tripod, f/5.6 or so, ISO 400, Bulb mode (shutter stays open as long as you press the shutter). These are 2,3 ,4, or 5 second exposures, trying to capture only one, interesting burst. These are the 15 prettiest, out of 150 frames. Lightroom to adjust exposure, and crop. Prints here.

Wow! These are closer than anything I’ve seen to observing the real live thing. Neato!
