I haven't been to Sanam Luang, or any of the really great
fireworks displays for years. They do have fireworks around my
neighborhood, but I usually don't do anything until I hear them
starting up. Then I walk out onto my balcony, look at them for
about a half a minute, and only then decide I should take some
photos. But these aren't the huge city park displays, and they
usually only last about 2 minutes. By the time I walk in, get my
camera and tripod, come back out, and get set up, I'm usually
lucky if I get two or three shots. This year was different. I
heard some fireworks going off 10 minutes early, so I went out
and looked, got my camera set up ahead of time, and waited. But
the usual fireworks that go off right in front of my balcony,
more than ever, evaded me. I heard a few go off in front of my
building, but I never have figured out how to photograph around
the corner of a building. I also saw a few go off in various
places in the distance. But as Murphy's Law would have it,
Waterside Restaurant, or whoever it was that puts off the
fireworks in front of my balcony, just wasn't feeling very
festive this year. Well, have a Happy New Year, anyway! I wish
you the best of health and luck in the coming year! |
