Motley Fireworks Display

Short talk:

My streamyx connection is extremely slow throughout this few days. What's going on? This has definitely stretched my patience lots. Never mind, due to "Patience is an integrity", i will endure! I wonder why.

Is it that there is another earthquake occurred in Taiwan again?? Please, No...

-------------------------------------------------

And i was on my way back home after having supper at the Open Air market plus attending the City Day Parade Closing Ceremony. While i was thoroughly fagged inside the car, all of a sudden Melvin ~~yelled~~ :"Fireworks!!!!! "

**Ping Piang Pong Piang**

Chiong-ing (means Headed in Hokkien) straight towards the scene. It was so ~~chun~~ fortunate that i brought my Canon IXUS camera with me. Without any hesitation,I settled on my best spot and Action!

First shot.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Okay, this was totally a failure. Ergh... not even a single spark. My timing was completely out. Shame shame. Don't laugh. Have you ever heard of "Failure is the Mother of success ?"

Second shot.

Third shot. Improved le..

Not bad not bad..

Not bad la.. at least there was some sparks.

My last shot. (Picture below)

Quite nice right??

I didn't manage to get the authentic motley color of what fireworks should look like. Mission failed tremendously. Erghh... Dispirited.

However, I was envious when i realized what Melvin's Olympus camera can performed. Check it out !

Rocket sets in motion.

BoomMM...

Speechless. How can he managed to get that shot? It was totally ridiculous ba! Plus, he even zoomed in and captured this image. (picture below)

This is too much man! Bravo + Stunning!

More snapshots.

Nice one! Every single flash was superbly captured!

This definitely looked like a meteor with a lightning tail followed beside. Cool ! What's more, here's the Best Shot of all. See this!

Nuclear launched.

##Ping Piang Pong Piang##

**BooMM**

Speechless. This was absolutely impossible ba. How can it be possible to take every single motion of those sparks? **Clap clap**

**Attention to all readers, the pictures above was taken with the special capability of an Olympus Camera. ~~not of the skills from Melvin okay.~~

Nonetheless, not to capitulate easily. I have recorded a short clip of the display with my Canon cam. You just got to sit back and watch this clip. Trust me, never in your life, you have seen such amazing fireworks display ~~live~~.

Perfect !

P/s: I wonder whether those expenses that was used to buy those fireworks were actually from the taxes that we pay. hmm..

Maybe you need to change your camera scene mode if you wanna get the same results as Melvin's ;)
