With a couple of free hours, I took a little stroll through the archives this afternoon and came upon this little forgotten photograph. It's a long exposure shot taken after one of the summer fireworks shows in the city. I generally stick around for a little bit after the explosions and that's how I got this photograph. My eye was initially caught by the lights of the Clock Tower and the Molson Brewery reflecting on the water, but I noticed a boat arriving to my left, full of people who had watched the show and were headed back to port. I wasn't that interested in the boat, but I knew that the lights would leave a nice trace across the water as it passed me by. The photograph was taken at f/18, 30sec, ISO 100 at 54mm. I generally come back with several photographs taken after the fireworks end, but they end up forgotten in the archives. Just another reason why I should dig through there more often.
