Hi everyone - so we start a new season -

here are a few of my pictures from yesterday's show - I shot from Ile Charron (Boucherville) - and used my 300mm - made a few mistakes, such that I left the stabilizer on when I was on a tripod (highly not recommended) and attached the camera to the tripod instead of the lens to the tripod - this resulted in a lot of motion blur - I will know next time - I think I was able to get some decent ones nevertheless

Hi rachelita,

It's nice to see both you and your nice fireworks pictures once again! I just looked through the photos, and I thought they were still pretty nice despite the slight blur.

I particularly liked this one:

Also above the fireworks mass in the photo, the glowing stars look like a small star constellation there.

Anyhow, thank you for sharing! I look forward, as always, to seeing your photos for the upcoming displays! Hope you get great integral views like this one!

Trav.

Thanks Rachel. Hopefully you'll have better luck with your camera next time. I've put three of your pictures up on the main 2008 photo page.

Cheers,

Paul.
