Explosive Night, a photo from Nevada, West

Photographer's Note

The earliest documentation of fireworks dates back to 7th century China, where they were invented. The fireworks were used to accompany many festivities. It is a part of the culture of China and had its origin there; eventually it spread to other cultures and societies. Important events and festivities such as the Spring Festival (Chinese New Year) and the Mid-Autumn Festival were and still are times when fireworks are guaranteed sights. China is the largest manufacturer and exporter of fireworks in the world. (From Wikipedia)

Hello Eleu,

I´ve often tried to capture fireworks but it never worked so well as in this shot. Perfect timing and also a good POV. Good sharpness too.

Hi Eleu
The coloful burst looks very crispy razor sharp and It is always nice to sit back and watch the show like this and true sensation of recording the event in the first place. I love the clarity all seems to be well exposed even on the brightest light there, and tx to your sturdy tripod of course. Great timely triggered, TFS
Kind regards
