Arkhangelsky Bridge in Cherepovets

One of my reporting assignments was to shoot fireworks over the Arkhangelsky Bridge in Cherepovets, which opened in early August.

To search for a future shooting point, I walked around the banks of the Sheksna River near the bridge.

I knew in advance where the fireworks would be located.

Well, when darkness fell, I immediately knew where to go.

I shot fireworks many times and I already know what settings to set.

You don't need a very slow shutter speed to shoot fireworks.

One second is enough.

Although if you set it to an ultra-long exposure or make a time-lapse and glue the frames into one, you can achieve an interesting effect.

I needed speed, as always.

Salutes were launched from two barges that stood in the middle of the river near the bridge on both sides of it.

I believe that better angles could have been chosen, but, again, I needed efficiency and accessibility.

And on the shore, by the way, at that moment there were a lot of people who wanted to admire the beauty.

The firework lasted for a very long time, so people started asking when it would end.

And as always, the best photo was a completely different spontaneous one, which I took on the way back after the fireworks.

The bridge was shrouded in haze and with the backlight it looked epic.
