[QUOTE="Moab Man, post: 168152, member: 11881"] Day 185, 2013 - Fireworks I have been doing this photography for a while and the Project 365 from the beginning of the year. Later on, a few months ago, my wife MoabLady decided to join me and I purchased her a camera. Over time I have been teaching her the mechanics of how to take her picture and to edit them. And I know sometimes she gets frustrated because she wants to have it all now; the know how that comes with experience. However, I have to give her credit because she has it in her to think out of the box and come up with some great ideas. For example, tonight we were heading out to shoot the fireworks. I hadn't done it, but had some ideas, and I did a quick search on Nikonites for some ideas to get us in the ballpark on getting some decent shots. So there we are shooting and were set up with some of the basic suggested settings when she gets an idea... "I wonder what a thirty second exposure would be like?" I told her I had no idea but go ahead and give it a try and lets see what it looks like. Let me tell you, we got some spectacular shots and she nailed it on the head. Following her lead we cranked up the aperture to f16-22, ISO 100, and varied the shutter time from 10 to 30 seconds based on the intensity of the fireworks. Credit to my lovely wife, MoabLady. We both left with some spectacular shots and the credit goes entirely to her tonight for leading the way. [ATTACH=CONFIG]42800._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
