Australia Day 2015

Australia Day rolled around again on a cold Monday evening, which of course means the fireworks here in Ballarat at Lake Wendouree. I've been shooting the fireworks for a few years now, so I'm always looking at new ways to capture them. With a bit of location scouting earlier in the day, I decided to set up in a location that allowed me to include the environment as much as the fireworks themselves. From this spot between two of the boat sheds on the east side of the lake I was able to line up the Australian flag on View Point and it was great to find a couple of the many images I took had the flag lit well enough to see in the darker sky. You may need to click on these to see the larger version to find that flag!
