    Re: Fireworks Tips

    Glad this was brought back up. Just a reminder, this has a permanent home in the "How-to's" section of this site. If you ever need to find it, just head there.

    Looking forward to seeing what you guys do this year.

    Who needs a tripod

    This was taken hand held because there was no room on the beach to set up the tripod 1/8th at F2.8 using a Canon Powershot Pro 1

    It was taken at the Battle of Trafalgar celebrations on a beach in Portsmouth back in 28/06/2005 or 06/28/2005.
