Best wishes for new year for everyone!

After waiting for 9 hours (went there thinking road would close, it didn't) and out of hundreds I tried only this one came out semi-reasonable.

    Happy new year to you too. That's a great shot, well worth waiting for. Too bad about the others.

    Happy New Year, Taz. Beautiful shot - I love the perspective and comp. Getting only one good shot must be a first for you!

    Thanks Richard! Yay! Fireworks are way too hot compared to rest of the scene.....then after first burst you get so much smoke.....and I picked wrong spot to get focus...behind the bridge...thinking it is all one plane a that distance....those were my problems. Have to figure out blending next year! Cheers!

    Well, Taz, it's better to be a One-shot Wonder than a No-shot Wonder. That's the way I see it. I doubt I could improve on your effort here.thumb.gif

    Take care,

    Tom
    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    If I ever figure out blending, it would be a game changer.
