Happy New Year!
You see, it's getting common to have fireworks on New Year's Eve. I went downtown to take photos. In fact, I could see and smell massive amounts of explosive chemicals. I mean "a lot" and "everywhere"...
I had Panny 7-14 mm/F4 lens with me. It's an ultra wide-angle zoom lens that is equivalent to 14-28 mm in full frame (Leica 35mm film format). I really enjoyed shooting fireworks at 7 mm (14 mm equivalent).
Now you know what I meant. Fireworks were launching from everywhere in any direction you can possibly imagine (A), If you keep your face up to the sky, then you got to watch your steps. Fireworks are rolling on the ground (B). Relatively small-sized local explosions were everywhere, too (C). Some were launched off just a few meters away from you (D). Well, many of them were actually exploding over your head. Debris kept falling incessantly from above your head because the wind was against us (D). It's been quite noisy there. I heard nothing related to the countdown of the coming year 2013...
