Wait until you retire....that should be your #1 priority on your bucket list....retiring that is!Awesome photos.
Something I've always wanted to try.
Evan Sharboneau teaches it in his Trick Photography Course.
I have the course (and I promote it) and need to give it a go sometime. Where will I find the time to do everything I want to?
Very poignant article... thanks for the insight! I myself had wondered about getting a shot from down low to catch the bounces, etc. I'm guessing a longer range lens zoomed in to APPEAR to be closer will be the way to go! Still not a wide-angle, but...
I don't even think a filter on the front of the lens would make me feel safe now. What if a flaming bit of metal landed on top of the camera, like the top LCD display or somesuch? Not worth the risk, IMO. Of course, I guess you could cut up some welder's gloves and create a closed in protective housing with just the front of the lens looking out, and a filter on that....
Hrrrmmmmmm....

Been Pondering this, along with just where I could get away with this without getting arrested. My thought would be to either drape the camera in some fire retardant fabric, or just use a piece of heavy duty aluminum foil to shield it. If you're going solo then an RF trigger should still work as long as it's not totally enclosed.
