This year, wanting a different perspective of the Ala Moana Fireworks, we headed for the beach. I wanted to get some coconut trees in the foreground, so we settled in a clear area and waited with the masses. I spotted this cool inner tube w/ a flag.
I totally underestimated how large the burst were and when the fireworks started, about 5 mins before 8:30pm, I settled with this view. You can't even see the coconut trees on Magic Island.
My friend's daughter wanted to take the remote so we coordinated when to press the remote and when to release...we sorta got a heart shape burst.
The good thing about this show is there wasn't as many white color bursts.. I used F11 to keep the bursts from getting too blown out.
I tried brightening this shot to show some of the people in the foreground.
This was close to the end of the show. The show ended in about 15 mins, just as I was getting good at timing the bursts!
