Question: Whats the best way to photograph fireworks!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
At 100ISO, I shoot them at f/5!.6 with the camera on the Bulb setting!. Open it up before the firework goes off and close it right after it's done (3-5 seconds!.)Www@QuestionHome@Com

take a photo of the background!. the fireworks will be over exposed!. that's fine!. then set your camera to manual!. 1/30 at maybe f/4!. you have to predict where the fireworks will be!. then in photoshop cut out the fireworks and place it on the background photo!. then change the fireworks blend layer to overlay and you're done!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Practice!. Experiment with different shutter speeds and contrasts that will work in the dark!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
