Bonfire Night in Wakefield

Each year, Wakefield Council hosts a free bonfire and fireworks event in Thorne's Park, attracting 10-12,000 people.



I had planned the event to try to capture the fireworks as best as I could (ISO 100, 4 second exposure, F9, tripod, remote release etc etc) but was hit by the driving rain that sloshed into the lens that was tilited up into the sky.  It really was lashing it down at times and most of the photos are 'artistic smudges' of blurry streaks.  It cleared for long enough to get a few bursts over the Wakefield skyline, nice enough to process and post.
