I love portraits, that's what I do and I will tell anyone that asks that I'm rubbish at just about anything else involving my camera, BUT I do still love to play around and try new ideas out! Tonight at the fireworks I decided to take a spin on old photography trick, instead of just taking a plain on picture of the fireworks. A common photography trick is to zoom in and out while shooting a long exposure, but I would spin my camera in and out of focus while the fireworks were bursting. It took a bit of time to figure the timing out and see what speed of focusing looked better, but after a while I was pretty happy with some of the images! I think it gives the images a fun and unique look and makes the fireworks look more bold and colorful. Take a look below:
