Adventures from Behind the Glass

Light Up the Sky, Independence Day, Sunrise, FL 2014

Not having been creating much new work lately, I re-post this image from last year with a more specific explanation of how it was made.

Using a tripod and opening and closing the camera shutter, I caught various single July 4th Fireworks bursts as the rockets took off and exploded. This Composite image was created in post production from six or more different sets of explosions from the same overall display, but captured minutes apart..

The colored lines on the bottom of the image are the streaking headlights of vehicles driving by the celebration.

Here’s looking forward to more independence (for me) to shoot…some day soon.
