As every one send fireworks photos, I tried to shot fireworks on the 14th of july.
This is the result.
I have a special mode on my camera for fireworks. I can't use my tripod because there was a lot of children with petards, and I was frightened for my camera. So it was always the surprise, press the button, try not moving and 4 seconds later, see the photo.
This is fantastic for no tripod. Reminds me of electricity.

Yep, maybe you should have make the children eat their petards before trying to use the tripod. But it was not necessary because the result is very good !

Nice job I must say without the tripod.

what are petards? This does look like crazy electricity shooting through the sky.

This is the picture you told me about. The effect is really cool. When and where is the next firework? I'd like to make also this kind of shot

I like the "waggly lines" that most likely were made as you were trying not to move. Very cool shot!
