I am going to the Klangwolke in Austria (Festival of light and sound held over the Danube) in early September.
This is the ultimate kind of shot I would like to come away with, can you offer any advice?

| my secrets... | July 7, 2009 @ 9:38am | get a long exposure to get the background...between fireworks as the long exposure will blow out shoot lots of individual bursts composite in Photoshop...select with marquee tool...drop in place and blend mode lighten select top...flip vertical...use smudge/blur tool to acheive accurate reflective look Now I am EXPOSED!!!

| July 7, 2009 @ 3:54pm | Thanks for that great advice Ned, I really appreciate it, and the thought process behind it has given me a lot more confidence as capturing lots of bursts maybe something I can do!

| July 7, 2009 @ 4:18pm | Also Danny...capture background and bursts with same lens, zoom level so as to keep perspective...if you shoot bursts with tighter zoom you will likely have to resize to look right...all mine were shot with 24mm-70mm at 24mm

| July 7, 2009 @ 6:22pm | Thanks for that extra nugget Ned,
I will jot these points down for reminders in my book, so I will have them with me when taking those shots in September... the theme for this years klangwolke is Armageddon so I bet there will be pretty big fireworks to cover that theme.
