Default I saw them stars go off


Some kids were playing with illegal fireworks next to my house, and I pulled out my camera and took a couple bulb exposure shots of them. Any thoughts?

Oh no worries. It was only a small firework, I just used a long exposure.

perhaps a little too long an exposure - the centre is pretty blown out - although you get that at the best of times with fireworks :-)

congrats on 400 posts Sime.

Yikes - if this went off beside my house I'd call that cause for concern....
