Marion from Nanaimo, BC, Canada

It looks like something from under the sea. It's 12:45 am here and I just finished supper 'cause I was out painting the "other place" Haven't commented on anyone's stuff 'cept yours and Lorraine's. This is lovely dear Judy. Good night. xoxox

@Marion: Good morning! "Under the sea," Dazzling," Angel Hair Pasta," ... all good names.

Oh my word ... I hope you could sleep after eating just B4 bed! Satisfaction and sheer exhaustion may have helped you nod off.

WOW! It exploded! Just loud enough to keep Marion up for it lol,,,,shots of light is always so amazing and the on type of photo I can't seem to master....It would probably help if I wasn't sleeping as soon as it got dark, hum...

tyan from Singapore, Singapore

WOW.I was thinking about your fireworks the whole day yesterday and thinking of bugging my hub to buy me a more powerful camera for me to take shots like this,LOL! I am more technical,they look like welding to me,heh heh!

Can i ask you for an advice,do you think its 'safe' for me to post pictures of my children on AM3?

@tyan: Ty ... don't run out to get a "more powerful camera" ... this was taken on my 'old' Canon S2 IS - look it up, it's not a fancy camera. But ....... it has a fireworks setting on it. All I did was hand hold the camera and shoot. The camera used a 2 second setting. ...... I'll e-mail you re: your question.

Lorraine from Gatineau, Canada
