Photographer's Note
Another hanabi (firework) close up photo taken during the annual Adachi-ku fireworks festival.
Fireworks usually mark the end of the summer season and they are usually packed with people watching.
There are usually many guides to the different fireworks all over Japan.
Most guides have the following information:
1. Location
2. How many fireworks to be set off
3. How many people came last year
This is a definite thing to see if you come to Japan in the months of July and August.

Wow, I liked the first one a lot, but I think this one is much better! The sense of motion and the range of colours are amazing :-D

Good work. Doing fireworks pictures is not as easy as it seems. I have to work on it again ;-)
Have you been to the sumidakawa hanabi ?

This is indeed a great photograph. Your framing, cropping and range of colors is just tremendous. As a result, a normally cliched subject looks fresh and interesting.
I particularly enjoy the multi-colored traces within in each burst.

Still tough! But really, this one is even better!
Fascinating is the right word I think...

This is quite a stunning shot, I must say. The close up of the firework explosion is nicely shown and the colors that you captured are really spectacular. The framing is what makes the shot happen for me.

Cool fireworks looking shot. I really like how you've caught all the colors and in good focus. You'll have to give me some pointers as 4th of July is coming up for me.
