I’m convinced fireworks are something that need to be seen and not photographed.

Last night we were fortunate enough to experience the OzAsia Moon Lantern Festival including the fireworks finale to the evening.

I started watching with camera to my side and felt like I was missing some great images so I quickly pulled off the lens-cap and started capturing some shots.

I realised I was now missing the full experience of fireworks so I put the camera away again and just enjoyed the show.
