Celebrations
Setting off fireworks at the local village ‘festa’, which is the maltese word for feast.
This was shot with my mid-range zoom lens. It was a handheld shot. 1/10 sec at f4. ISO 200 and focal length 24mm.
It was not easy to get this shot but I finally managed to get one I liked. I used to think that it was not possible to get a decent image hand-holding a camera in low light. Sometimes I like it when I prove myself wrong :) I would still rather have had my tripod with me though!!
Celebrations belongs to the following groups:
All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, As Is, Night Photography, PixElations - The Art of Photoshop and Religious Art & Photography Available for sale asGreeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints, Framed Prints and Posters
