My first fireworks photos.

As De said its hard to know how high they are going to go, and with all the action being over in a few seconds you have to be really quick. Bit of a change from still subjects. Hmm, probably should have resized some of these so they were a bit smaller.

About five years ago I did yea, some of them still make me jump a bit, but others are just amazing. I love the patterns and shit.

This spider is about the size of a fingernail with all it's legs stretched out. Hardly a menacing spider.

It's this one that you have to watch out for (rather large red back).

Cheers man, always good to see what others use setting wise, it helps the more amateur photographer like myself get better

[deadmeatwalking]

all good mate one thing to remember though is that different lenses will always create different bokeh  effects .. generally the better the glass the more hexagonal the halation will be

Oh for sure, I currently have just the basic kit 18-55, 55-250 and a 50MM lens, the 55-250 produces an okay bokeh when at a suitable distance zoomed in
and the nifty fifty is not toooooo shabby, however it's a cheap plasticy almost disposable feeling lens.

Honestly mate the 50mm canon Prime punch for punch would honestly hold its own against a the equivalent in Zeiss (i had one so i can make the comparison except it was an f1.4) i do understand that it is light and plastic but there is no doubting the quality and trust me the Zeiss is just as easy to break just ask my 5 yr old son
