Coloful explosions over the starring piece!

Wonderful colours, wonderful place, wonderful city :)

Rio de Janeiro, RJ - Brazil
Lagoon's Bradesco christmas tree

P/ Nat:
Inauguração da Árvore da Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas, Rio de Janeiro, 2007. Essa foto é fruto de uma observação muito importante.
Para fazer esta foto eu observei os fotos subindo e pensei: quanto tempo demora desde que um foguete saia e exploda até sumir? Então observei, contei, coloquei na câmera e esperei o momento onde não havia nenhum foguete subindo e cliquei! Quando os foguetes sumiram, a câmera terminou de bater esta foto!

Rafael Lopes - Dillbert says:

Thank you! The secret is put the camera in Tv mode, point it to the tree and see the aperture, note it, go to Manual mode, put the same exposure with the aperture "stolen" from Tv mode ;)
Doing this, you get the tree (or the main focus of light) with a perfect exposure and the fireworks, the fireworks is lucky ;)
