Christophe Van Biesen's video: Rooftopping in Luxembourg City Cityscape and Fireworks

Accompany me for some rooftopping on the Eve of Luxembourg's National Day 2017 to take pictures of some fireworks. Watch me talk about the view from the rooftop and the challenge of photographing fireworks. See the end of the video for the resulting pictures. Fireworks can be tricky to photograph. An f-stop between f/5.6 and f/8 yields the best results. ISO should be kept as low as possible around 100-200. Shutter speed is the most important part. In this video, I used Bulb mode on the Canon 5D Mark III with an off-camera remote. Bulb mode allows to use variable shutter speeds and follow the rhythm of the fireworks. ———— My website: http://christophevanbiesen.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChristopheVanBiesenPhotography Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/christophe.vanbiesen ———— Image 1: ‘Spectacle of Lights’ - 45mm | 30 sec | f/8 | ISO 100 | 5 shot composite Image 2: ‘Colours of Luxembourg’ - 40mm | 5 sec | f/8 | ISO 100 | 4 shot composite Image 3: ‘Midnight Sun’ - 28mm | 10 sec | f/8 | ISO 50 | 4 shot composite ———— My gear: Fujifilm X-T2 Fujifilm XF 10-24mm F4 R OIS Fujifilm XF 18-55mm F2.8-4 R LM OIS Fujifilm Fujinon 23mm F 2.0 XF R WR Black Canon 5D Mark III Canon EF 17-40mm F4 L USM Canon EF 24-105 mm F4 L IS USM Canon EF 70-200mm F4 L USM Canon S110 Nisi filters Manfrotto and Sirui tripods F-Stop bag iPhone 6S ———— All my pictures are shot in RAW and processed in Lightroom CC/Photoshop CC. ———— Music: YouTube Music Library
