Fireworks!

Wesley R. Elsberry

Fireworks (almost) in my backyard.

More pictures at this page. Notice this picture where one of the fireworks went off essentially at ground level. It is good to keep a safe distance from the staging area.

I took these on July 3rd and 4th in the schoolyard behind the backyard here. I used my Fuji S2 Pro digital SLR (ISO 100) with Nikkor 24mm f2.8 lens (f stops from 11 to 22) and “bulb” exposure (2 s to 120 s). Support from the Miller DS-5 tripod Emily Kay sent me earlier this year. I used ImageMagick to “normalize” and resize the pictures.
