Fireworks... yeee!

Long time, no photos! Well, I didn't have too many excuses to go out and shoot recently. However, Ignis Brunensis changed that, so I borrowed a tripod and tried to give it my best shot. As I never photographed fireworks before, and lacked a remote trigger, I am not entirely satisfied, but hey, they are not entirely bad and at least I have learned some lessons for next time.






As for the last one - I have ruined many pictures because of blur, like this one. I was pretty far from the scene and had to use long focal length. The tripod was fairly small and unstable for my huge lens, and whenever I pressed the shutter the camera started to shake. All of the shutter times were over a second long, too - there's no way image stabilization can compensate for that.

Some other photos from the night are here.
