These are my favorite shots from this summer's International Fireworks Competition!
Tripod!
Tonight is the last night of the fireworks competition and I finally have at tripod!
I managed to merge parts from two broken tripods to form one mostly-functioning tripod! I'm very excited to test it out.
The girl with the monopod
Went to the fireworks again last night. Again, felt a little akward at being the only photographer without a tripod.
I know I need one
but I don't have one
So I'll make do with what I have.
Sometimes I get my shots handheld. Usually the shots from atop the bridge as a tripod/monopod is useless up there. Fortunately here I'm so close to the fireworks I don't need exposures longer than 1 second.
Other times I find a spot where I can set the camera down on a flat surface, which works quite well if I use a towel/cloth to help position it.
And yes, I know a bean bag would work better than a towel, but I'm usually just barely able to fit the
International Fireworks Competition
The International Fireworks Competition in Montreal has begun!
Also, there is a circus festival going on this week!
Love this city! <3
Magic of Lanterns
Hit up the botanical gardens last weekend for the Magic of Lanterns.
Got distracted photographing the Olympic park so I didn't have much daylight left when I got to the gardens.
Also, my tripod broke, monopod was forgotten in Maine, and my remote shutter release was malfunctioning.
Still, the lanterns were bright and I found some steady ground, so I got a few good shots.
Look forward to some interesting photos on the way! :)
