How to Take Better Night Shots
Towns often come alive at night, as the lights go on inside buildings, their exteriors are floodlit, and street lights get switched on. If you’re going to a public display, arrive as early as possible, so you can check out the location and find the best vantage point. If you’re not sure where to stand, ask where the fireworks are expected to explode, so you can position yourself to get a clear view.
While it’s tempting to go really close to the display, you’ll get a much better perspective by staying well back. You’re also less likely to have people getting in front of the camera or knocking into your tripod. It’s a waste of time and effort trying to hand-hold for aerial displays, so remember to take a tripod, because it takes a few seconds for each volley of fireworks to fill the sky.
