You did a fine manual exposure , your settings are probably better than the auto on the camera.
Excellent image Karen.

Great shot with the flying sparks. I like the glow too, creates a moodiness. "V"

Great shot of this lovely display. Always intrigues me to see the sparks.
Mike H.12-Jun-2012 22:13
Wow, let's hope he continues to hang fire and NOT
progress to actual ignition of fuel tank contents...
In black powder muskets, this was a concern also : )
Great existing lo-light image, Karen -- very telling!

Oh, Cindi will love the sparks in this one. Super background details in low light and nice trails on the sparks... I love dark images like this. V
