4th Of July Fireworks

 

I spent the evening at the Salem Fair Fireworks show for the 4th of July photographing all of the beautiful lights and motion.  The setup I used for this photograph was my Canon 6D  with the 17-40mm F4L mounted on a Inudro tripod and I controlled the exposure with my Promote Control. Some of the problems you have to deal with in a situation like this is finding a balance between the lights of the rides and fair grounds and the fireworks. By using a manual shutter hold on the remote I could quickly look at the histogram and see immediately if I need to lengthen or shorten my exposure.
 

I also had a second camera setup Sony A6000 with the 16-50mm lens shooting a timelapse video using the Sony Timelapse App which can be found below.
