Last Saturday night (13th), I was in Miami before hopping on my cruise the next morning, and just happened to have my camera and tripod with me when fireworks starting going off for St. Patty's on a little waterfront boardwalk next to the Miami port.

This is my first real attempt at fireworks. I feel like I did 'ok', but C&C would be greatly appreciated as well.

Thanks.

 

They look good to me!

 

Look good! Can you give us some detail?

Aperture
Bulb or Shutter
ISO
Infinity?
Remote? Trigger?

D300 right?

 

They all varied some as I was constantly adjusting to try out different things. Wanted to try and get all kinds of results since this was my first go around. Here's a few of the pics info.

First picture:
Exposure: 2.5
Aperture: f/22.0
Focal Length: 36 mm
ISO Speed: 1600

The second to last photo (predominately green):
Exposure: 1.3
Aperture: f/14.0
Focal Length: 35 mm
ISO Speed: 1600

Last photo:
Exposure: 0.8
Aperture: f/11.0
Focal Length: 35 mm
ISO Speed: 1600


And yup, I'm using a D300. I would've used a remote if I had one. I need to get on that...

 

Thanks!

 

Looks good!

 

the shoots came out great

 

Thanks!
I think the only thing that really bugged me about the pictures was the boats. I know that's not the focus of the pics...but I thought they were kind of ...I'm wondering if it would've been better if I would've opted for ISO 800 instead....
