Star Spangled Hendrix Fireworks

Shot last night on the beach- the fireworks were launched from a barge just offshore in the Atlantic Ocean.
I hiked in about 15 minutes from my parking spot, so I only used a stills tripod, which bounced around a bit with the 70-200 in the 20 mph winds.
And then of course pouring rain heading back to the car...

Canon 24-70 2.8L, 70-200 2.8L, Tokina 11-16 2.8
A mix of 24p and overcranked 60.
ISO 400, HD Norm/Norm 2
Ungraded except for highlights in 2 shots- surprised at the lack of noise in the blacks... :beer:

Thanks Steve! I went back and added more explosions to the beat in the beginning...
And as a player, hopefully the song worked for you, too.
 
Great music for a fireworks display.

Was just playing 'Hey Joe' on my Fiesta Red Strat when I saw this post

True! Be sure to check my new member category above my avatar... :happy:
Apologies to Jimi for the multiple audio edits- leaving enough feedback to keep it "Jimi", but shortening and tightening for the edit... I beg for forgiveness...

Cool, Shooter :thumbsup:
I have a red '63 Tele... played the Star Spangled Banner yesterday (my birthday- the fart just got a little older...)
 
Maybe that's why wood tripods were phased out! :grin:

"What so prooooudly we hailed, as the tripod was burning..."
 
Perhaps Jimi should've been a DP... but then again many of his images may have looked like the light streaks of the fireworks... :shocked:
