Image Location : The Spectacular Gunwharf Quays annual Fireworks Extravaganza, they are fired over the Emirates Spinnaker Tower which is located in Portsmouth, Hampshire.

I met a photographer friend, Mark Andreas Jones with his son Oliver in Gosport last Thursday evening to watch and photograph these spectacular fireworks, it is a shame my photographs cannot give you the noise or percussion we enjoyed being there in person. A really good show to experience, I did enjoy it!

This image was captured about 8:30pm using a tripod-mounted Canon 5DmkIII camera and a Canon 24-70mm f/4L IS set to 24mm and manually focused on the spinnaker tower. The camera was set to Manual with a 2.5 second exposure at f/11, ISO 100 and daylight white balance. The RAW processing and final adjustments were all done in Photoshop CC. This image is a single exposure and not manipulated.
