Eric, you are looking at a multi exposure.
Amazing. I am a photog major and was wondering how you did this. The fireworks came in 3 sets, and was wondering what made this happen,if it was editing, or just the way it was recorded, in pieces. You can email me if you wish.
thanks GT and Kristina. M mode.
What setting did you have the camera on?
this is amazing

thanks Toby.
Great job, again capturing and creating from the current. Learning from the teacher; keep on putting up your great art! You’ve got the talent!!
thanks Andy, 1/30th at 2.8 iso 2000
Wow! beautiful captures!
Were you using the bulb setting? Or exposure time? What was it maybe 1/20th?
haha, don’t know about that!
Better than the Beijing Olympics which sucked large!!!
thanks much Jasminko!
Your work is really fantastic. Grand Central Terminal is great. All the best.

yes! the Turkish March! thanks for pointing it out.
A bit too “descriptive” for me. Nice show anyway !
By the way, the music you used is not the overture of the Abduction from the Seraglio. It’s a transcription for orchestra of the final movement of a piano sonata (N°11) commonly knowned as “Alla Turca”
