Catch-light (back home editing) has added a photo to the pool:
If theres one thing that my dad taught me was not to play with fireworks. Well id say that was bad advice. So i went out and bought a pack of firecrackers the other night and headed down to find somewhere i could let them off. So this is where i ripped my finger on a chain that i had hooked up with this mad idea and as i was getting that ready i gashed open my index but it was still before i even took the photo so like any light painter would do i set up my lights and had to get the photo.
This was the first attempt i did as i had 5 fireworks but i first tested the light on my with the 2 flashes and i set up all that exposure and then it was time to attempt the fire work. I knew i had to hit the self timer on the camera and make a mad dash back to the picnic table and sit down and light that firework with the timer of when the photo was about to start cause the flashes that lit me fire a tthe start of the exposure so i had to be ready and set and thats how this shot went down --I ran back to the camera after the firework was done and checked the back of the camera and this was on there --i was stoked and first attempt i didnt want to jinx it so i saved my other firecrackers and went home with that ---"that was a good shot thoughts" --i peroxided my ripped finger and called it a day---day 171 actually---playing with fireworks
Specs and Strobist
Sb-800 camera right full gelled yellow (zoomed 24)
sb-800 camera left full gelled blue (zoomed 24) and both fired via nikon cls as the flashes were about to go off i lit the firework and sat in position--then the flashes went off and lit me and then i slowly moved the fire work every time it fired from left to right to create that pattern
30 second exposure
