Firework Abstracts


Like in every year, there was a firework show last night at Vivocity. Since I had no energy to go there and wait, I skipped it as usual. I live about 2 kilometers away from Vivocity. So when I heard the familiar series bursts at around 9pm, I came out of my apartment to see if I can see it. Well I could, but not close enough to get good shot, not in such a way that I can fill the frame with the shot, not in the way that I liked it because It was a view from a distance.



Even though there is not much scope for photography from such a distance, I took my camera to cure the itch in my fingers. While aiming at the faraway fireworks I thought of abstracts. Tried moving the camera in some patterns while the shutter is open, so that I can fill the frame with just the fireworks. I guess that worked to an extent and I liked what I got.



So when odds are against a concrete shot, try abstract.
