Perth Skyworks Fireworks Australia Day 2012

Amazing. That’s the only word that can truly describe this years Perth Skyworks.

Now the fireworks were great, but what made this year special was the backdrop. Before the show even started dark clouds started to roll in, then almost on demand a lightning storm erupted as the fireworks began.

I have to say though it is far trickier capturing fireworks when you are trying to keep the camera lens clear of raindrops with a couple of dinner plates!

Having never tried to capture lightning before I found it surprisingly frustrating when major strikes occurred between exposures. Ahhh. I decided to hang around a little while after the skyshow and had much better success. It’s nice to have caught a few good lightning strikes over Perth.

Check out the rest of the shots on my Flickr site or in my Gallery.
