Symphony Sunday fireworks
I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. This page is a detailed account of the biggest threat to my photography and video operation that I had to battle daily to just barely survive, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem facing all of my colleagues as well. |
One of at least a dozen fireworks displays that Charleston has every year. This one is usually set off on the river at the Capitol, so I thought I could get a few shots with the dome. I set up on Greenbrier at I-64. Problem is that the capitol is undergoing maintenance and is surrounded by ugly scaffolding. Add to that the fireworks barge being farther to the right than I estimated, and this wasn't really worth the effort. At least I avoided the traffic!
