With the Chinese New Year / Lunar New Year upon us, firework events will illuminate the night sky across the world from February 17. And while many of the biggest and brightest displays will take to the skies across Asia, incredible fireworks celebrations will be popping off across the West, too.
I like to think of fireworks photography as a specialist form of light painting. And while a fully manual camera and a sturdy tripod will enable you to capture the best fireworks images possible, the best camera phones are becoming incredibly adept at handling the unpredictable lighting conditions of a fireworks displaytoo.
