Celebration of the Tall Ships 2005 Photo

Photographer’s Note

After this fireworks show, it made me realise how to appreciate the city the I am currently living "Newcastle". The local citizen are always the best in my mind. The Tall ships 2005 came with fireworks show was just perfect. It was unforgetable memory for me and my girlfriend.

Fireworks are not so easy to capture. Here, you combined successfully a good angle and several fantastic shots. Very good Kenneth. I'm impressed.

What a great photograph - you have certainly captured the fireworks brilliantly. Great colours. I certainly agree with your comments on Newcastle - great people - great place (I am biased since it is my home town!).

This is a great exposure Kenneth, with the sky a beautiful 'bruised' colour and a fantastic composition. The 8 second exposure has given a result which looks like overlaying; the line of fireworks ascending up to the top right balances the line of bunting (the small triangular flags) and the 2 vertical lines of fireworks cut across these and point to the sky bursts. Stunning.

I also like the patch of people in the bottom left of the shot as it seems to make me part of the audience.
