jnarin: Thank you! :) there is no rocket science in fireworks photos, all you need is a tripod and a clear view of the fireworks.
sarah: me too :)
hiba: Put your camera in Aperture priority mode, select aperture anywhere from F8-F10 (I picked F10), set ISO speed to 100, put the camera on a tripod and you are all set to photograph fireworks. Remember that each photo takes about 2-3 seconds so time your shot and click the shutter release as soon as the shell explodes.
natasha: of course you can, read the mini-tutorial above. It's a no-brainer :)
I love these. The colours have come out so well, but it's months till I can try this one at home- no fireworks until November 5th. Ho humm, maybe I'll just have to make my own. Mwahahahaha (evil laughter). ;o)
I actually see considerable smoke in the shots. Still, I don't think it takes away from the quality of the pictures. I think smoke adds texture so I like it that way.
mohib: I am very lazy when it comes to maintaining my own website. That is the main reason I don't have a website even though I have been paying for web hosting and domain names for the last one year :)
mars: Thanks Mars :)
ozair: Thank you :)
giuvic: You are right, pictures with colors from opposite ends of the color wheel are more popular :)
saroosh: Chicago is a big city, I am sure that the fireworks would have been really awesome especially if they did it over the lake.
bakpakchik: Thank you Ujala :) I was about half a mile away from the actual fireworks so smoke was not that much of a problem. I have read that as a rule of thumb you have to stand at a 90 degree angle from the direction of wind to photograph fireworks to avoid smoke (facing the direction of wind). Hope it helps :)
arsalan: Smoke is more of a problem when you are standing close to the fireworks, it gets into your eyes and the pictures don't turn out that well either.
hiba: Sorry about the delay, I have been juggling many important things for the last few weeks and I need to take care of them on a priority basis for my own sake. I hope you understand, I will try to keep posting pictures whenever I get a chance.
