Sumida River Fireworks Festival
π‘ Some Tips π Long Exposure for Cameras: Long exposure shots work really well! A shutter speed of 1 to 2 seconds is ideal. Any longer, and the fireworks might look washed out, losing their vibrant colors. π ππ ISO and Exposure: Set your ISO to around 800 and underexpose slightly. π If you have a camera with good stabilization, you can skip the tripod! πΈ Pre-Focus on Stationary Objects: Focus on stationary objects in the foreground, like trees, before the fireworks start. This way, you can just click away when the show begins. ππ Focusing on the spot can be tricky and time-consuming during the event. π³ (Key Point!!) Press the shutter as soon as the fireworks start to bloom at their peak! 1 to 2 seconds will capture the most beautiful moment of the explosion. π If you wait until they fully bloom, you'll only get the tail ends. π Avoid Strong Light Sources: Try to avoid strong light sources like streetlights in your shots. They can wash out the fireworks. π Stay Hydrated and Fed: Bring plenty of water and some snacks. ππ If you plan to sit on the ground, wearing long pants is a good idea to stay comfortable. π #FireworksFestival #SumidaRiverFireworks ππ
