Pyrotechnics is always a wonderful element to watch live, but also to photograph. The light and color offered by a fireworks castle or the magic of the movement of a sparkler are very attractive elements for any photographer.<\/p>\n

Many of Pyroparty<\/a>‘s customers tell us that most of the time, photographs of their parties with fireworks and other artifacts such as sources of cold fire tend to be very dark or excessively clear. Also, sometimes, they assure us that you see little thing … the nightmare of any photographer, not to capture what you want. That is why in this blog post we have decided to give you some keys on how to photograph fireworks and fireworks.<\/p>\n

KEYS TO PHOTOGRAPH PIROTECNIA<\/h1>\n

A bit of theory<\/h3>\n

The first thing you need to know about your camera<\/strong> (whether you have an impressive SLR or just have your mobile phone) is that it has something called exposure time<\/strong>. This time, in which the diaphragm (an element present in all cameras) is kept open. It is like a tap, the longer it is open, the more light will enter. That said, when a camera is set to a higher exposure time (also called shutter speed), it must remain more stable. So you know, try to get a tripod<\/strong> or a friend who has a good pulse to photograph fireworks.<\/p>\n

Stability: key to photograph fireworks<\/h2>\n

Following the analogy of the tap, it is difficult for water to enter the bottle if we are shaking and the nozzle is constantly moving. Well, in the case of photography it is the same. Having a good tripod on hand can help us photograph fireworks in the best way<\/strong>. In the case of being mobile photographers, our solution may reside in 1) placing our mobile at some strategic point, 2) using a selfie stick conveniently or 3) having a special tripod for phones. To fully guarantee the stability of the camera, you must remotely shoot in some way. You can buy one of those remote triggers or simply set the camera timer.<\/p>\n

The importance of camera parameters<\/h2>\n

A camera is, roughly, a device that collects light from a certain point for a set time. As we saw, increasing the time of exposure to light is essential to photograph fireworks. Many cameras, whether reflex or mobile phone, have the default option to photograph fireworks.<\/p>\n
