Taken in Auckland, New Zealand on New Years Eve, this is a four image composite (fireworks blended from four images).Taken with a Sony A1, Sony 70-200 GMII, MeFoto Globetrotter Air. Set to 100mm, 1/3rd second, ISO 800. I removed a small boat in the bottom left side with Photoshop's generative AI and applied Lightroom's Denoise AI to remove excessive noise in the sky. I needed to arrive about 5 hours before midnight to secure my spot for this image. The boat drifted into view about 5 mins before the show and I decided to keep it vs attempting to change locations at the last minute.
