Thanks for the tutorial. A couple thoughts: 1. when handling glassware, wear cotton gloves to prevent fingerprints in the photo. 2. if your camera has it, use the "Mirror Up" function to prevent camera shake. 3. use an electronic or mechanical shutter release to prevent camera shake. 4. rather than move the light (thereby changing the diffusion pattern), use a dimmer. 5. a strobe could be used along with a long shutter exposure with the advantage that the strobe's intensity can be changed. This way the lighting pattern on the diffusion device does not change. Terry Thomas... the photographer Atlanta, Georgia USA
@v1kkz I know we heard those stories from fellow Brits. Clamp lamps is us are sold in every store. lol... but people find them in Pet supply stores in UK... "Reptile Lamp"
@LearnMyShot They cost around $100 in pet shop. Impossible to find hardware one in EU. But decent alternative is halogen (yellow casing) lamp also for construction. They come with a stand. Just set proper WB. Unfortunatly, no clamp on it :(
@jerseyman9080 telephoto lens compresses perspective, so the sparkler appears to be right in the glass, kinda see our video titled: "Telephoto Lens Compression Photography Technique"
Aaaaaaah... CLAMP LAMP every single video!!!! Guys listen, we have no clamp lamps in the UK. Please Please Please tell us an alternative that we can use!

very neat idea! hmm imagine possibly maybe a headshot of someone with fireworks in the background with similar method. that'd be nice

@broadbent1250 shooting this on burst mode is a good idea. we did this in our "liquid pour and splash" video
Very tricky, Robert.
Thank you.

Great thanks! I get all my ideas from you.
Thank very much for create this video....
Happy New Year 2012 .... ^o^
Great and very creative. But i have one question, Why did you use 70-200mm instead of Macro lens ? Could you explain it to me please.
Thanks for the tutorial, can I ask why you didn't put it on sports mode to get a number of snaps in one go? I'm just a beginner.
did you try self timer?, you can be free then to pour and no shake of course ;-). good clip anyway.
@hyperfocus2011 I would be very interested to see your shot, upload it to lms using link in vid description
Thank you!!!
2 second exposure?? It looks even better at 1/125 of a second!
didn't you get any problems with the fumes from the sparkler.......especially with a that shutter speed?????
Exellent!
