Fireworks at the Beach

I finally got myself a tripod. Manfrotto no less. The hunt for this stand has been long. I finally purchased at bangalore. I did receive assistance on choosing a good tripod from a fellow photographer - Dr.Deepak V Rao of Bangalore. Thanks Deepak. This was a fireworks show at Besant Nagar Beach. Some shots here.

I was trying to take photos and at the same time was managing the camcorder. There was a huge light pole which I tried to avoid on the beach. But unfortunately most of the shots were bursting near that location and I had to shift the focus there. No, I could not change the angle since I was on a terrace of a house.
