Photographing #July4th #fireworks this year? Try focus-pulling: twist your lens' focus ring mid-exposure for some surreal results.
A few tips:
1: Open up your aperture as much as you can for more bokeh.
2. Zoom in: It's tempting to shoot ultra-wide, but by zooming in, you'll fill more of the frame with otherworldly results.
3: Twisting in-out/out-in focus quickly is tough. Make marks on your focus ring/lens (I use masking tape) so you can clearly see when you reach ∞

This almost isn't even a fair comparison because visibility through the wildfire smoke was *so* bad today.
The left photo was taken late last spring. The right photo was taken this morning #ChicagoWX #chicago #weather #wildfires
Last night was absolutely gorgeous. I don’t fly my drone much, let alone during blue hour, but conditions were perfect for a training mission.
I hope you had a nice Memorial Day weekend full of fun, relaxation, and reflection ✌🏼
