Backyard Fireworks

If you are looking for some fun photography you can do with your kids in your own backyard here's a suggestion. I picked up some cheap fireworks and sparklers at Wal-Mart for my son and I to play with and it turned out to be a lot of fun to Photograph. Here's a few samples below. All shots were taken in Bulb mode with shutter release cable on my D5200 but I think any camera with some manual controls could be just as fun.

Cool!! Reminds me of when I was a kid growing up in LA during the 70's only we didn't need fireworks to see things like that :eyetwitch:. ;)

Nice photo's and it's good fun in the dark with children. But you can have even more fun when they've gone to bed so they don't see you playing with fireworks.

Hi,
no it's fireworks tied to a string, just to show you some other ideas when the children go to bed. I have got some very good wire wool photos though.
