Fireworks Photo Tips [via Gizmodo]
Ed Krimen at Photobird gives us his top five tips for shooting fireworks, which might just make the difference between bringing the shot home to momma and ending up with some, uh, modern digital art.

That’s quite cool. Some nice handy tips for how to get that just-right shot of fireworks displays with your camera. Most of the tips really only apply to SLR-esque cameras, as you need to be able to tweak such settings as exposure time and shutter speed, which most point-and-shoot cameras don’t allow.

One thing I don’t have for my camera is a remote-release, maybe I should invest in one… Allthough it apparently doesn’t make *that* much of a difference, you *can* pick up some minutest amount of camera shake when pressing that shutter button, which could impact on the final shot.
