I took these shots of Wishes and the castle projection show (I don't think it's called Magic, Memories and You anymore) earlier this month. No post processing on any of them.

I love the reflection in the water on the first set:







I had a number of failed attempts at Wishes from the "hump" in front of the hub, but I'm really happy how this shot turned out.

I took these during the Wishes Dessert Party on 2/17/14.

Just got back from a quick Spring Break trip with the family. This was my first time shooting fireworks with a full frame body (Nikon D610) and without an ND filter (Nikon 14 - 24 f/2.8).

16 mm, f/13, 17 seconds, ISO 100



14 mm, f/11, 5 seconds, ISO 100

Love the pictures of Illumininations and Wishes, PythonFan. That shot from the back of the Castle is fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

March in Melbourne means Moomba, a long weekend full of carnival rides, entertainment, water skiing, birdman rallies, a parade and fireworks. It's really just a celebration for everyone to get together and have fun.








We only managed to head into town to enjoy the celebrations for the fireworks. I was horribly out of position......the city council decided to shift the fireworks launching bays this year. They are normally located on pontoons on the Yarra River. This year, they moved them to a 'land' position.


My camera settings were ISO 200, f/16 and speeds of 6 - 10 seconds.

Just a reminder......



4th July is approaching. Hoping to see some activity on this thread.
