First time being properly prepared to take photos of fireworks, Andy Barratt (wormholer693) talks a bit about Guy Fawkes night and how he took the photos at Baxter Park, Dundee on 5th of November 2011.
In the past, I'd tried just taking photos of fireworks with only my camera while leaning against a lamp post, this was a bit of a fail, you really do need to come better prepared.
Someone decided it was a good idea last night to have some Catherine Wheels or som'at like that, going right outside my window.... ;(
"Most people don't remember half the time what it's about. And think of it as a night for going out with their friends to see some fireworks and scaring the hell out the cat..."
[spends the rest of the video taking about fireworks]
:D You definitely caught the REAL point of Guy Faux right there! :)

1:50 is my favourite one. :D
I love drawing with light by doing a similar thing with the shutter speed. =] Some of the stuff people have done is insane.
