Fireworks from my boat

One kewl thing about the area I anchor in is the yearly fireworks. FIU hosted the North Miami fireworks again. Bal Harbor also had theirs on the Haulover jetty. And you could see Miami Beach’s in the background. It rained all day so there wasn’t many people.

Jock Ames said,: Pretty kewl Steve…is your camera a “flip”? We watched the fireworks at St Mary’s City, MD on the 2nd from our boat.
Beachbum said,: Its a Jazz HD175. Got it at Walmart on clearance for $69. Only problem is to process anything over 1 min in HD on my netbook takes hours of rendering time, so most of the time I just process normal quality.
Jock Ames said,: Did you use HD for the fireworks video? I didn’t blow it up so it looked pretty good!
beachbum said,: The original is, but the online version isnt.
Doreen said,: Cool 3 displays at once.
Beachbum said,: Re-rendered in 1280×720 720p HD with background music. Takes 35mins per 1 min of video on my netbook to render. Vid cam sucks in low light and 8x digital zoom is pixelated when zoomed in. I need to experiment with the exporsure settings. Still need to work on lower 3rds and watermark quality. Youtube scanned the video and added an ad to buy the music banner :(
