Firework display or "Bunga Api" in Malay.... is one of the annual event, where by all walks of life will gather with their families and friends to watch this spectacular event... the firework can be seen from various location around the city ... e.g. the capital city (along the waterfront of Kampung Ayer) and the Damuan Recreation Park etc.
Last year we photograph the event from the verge of the waterfront ... but this year we tried a different place, which is the Damuan Recreational Park near the Istana Nurul Iman (HM's Official Palace)....
Despite the AF4 (Akademi Fantasia 4) concert live on tv .. lotsa people still prefer to gather and see the firework display ...
.. one of the difficulties was .... that bright spotlight directed towards the park ... it made setting the exposure eer.. how shall I say ... goes haywire.... run havoc... wateverlah ... you will notice it when you look at the pix....
With that.. I'll leave u with these photos .... .
... the crowds waiting for the fireworks...
.. lurus tah nya Din Beramboi ... "...kemah kemping pun ada...."

and if you ever wonder how fireworks will look like in black & white ... well here you are ... ;)

Hi, we were those other photographers at Damuan that day and we are in your pics, haha. Nice to meet you. I've uploaded some photos taken that night on my site. Not really good though as it was our first time trying to photograph fireworks. Yours are good, and yeah the spot light was irritating. Cheers...
