After shooting the beginning of the fireworks display from the rocks at Fort Sewall, I made my way back toward the fort with an idea for the grand finale. As expected, the conclusion of the fireworks show was intense with a rapid succession of fireworks going off. I used the great tree as cover to shield the camera from the brightest parts of the explosions and hoped that I could get a long enough exposure to again show the crowd watching in rapt attention.
As the fireworks display is privately funded, I will be donating 20% of the proceeds from sales of any past and future fireworks images towards the annual fund. If you would like to donate directly, click here.
Technical: Canon 50D and EF-S 17-55mm at 17mm. ISO 100, f/8, 30 second exposure.
