Fireworks Photography: How to Capture a Brilliant Display

Preparing for Fireworks Photography

Arrive at the location early and choose a good position. A tripod is essential — shutter speeds will be long (2-8 seconds). Use a remote or timer to avoid camera shake.

Camera Settings

Bulb mode (B) or long exposure. ISO 100-200 for a clean image. Aperture f/8-f/11. Open the shutter at the start of a burst and close it after.
