Malaysia International Firework Competition (MIFC) 2008 at PICC Putrajaya – Grand Finale

Salam and hello everyone. Last Friday I went to Putrajaya again to enjoy this spectacular firework show, MIFC 2008. And as you know, the last Friday is the Grand Finale of Malaysia International Firework Competition 2008 and the firework show was performed by last year MIFC 2007 winner, Australia team. But it was really tiring. Since last Friday is the day I need to move into the new house and then after moved all my things, I rushed to Putrajaya around 8.40pm. I thought that it would be massive traffic congestion, yes it was; but lucky me, I avoid it by using “jalan belakang”. Hohoho..
So, I used the way to Presint 7 and then took the way to Presint 3 then parked my car at Presint 4, near the Seri Saujana bridge. I reached there about 9.15pm. Then, to find a spot for shooting, I walked about 1 km plus. hohoho.. damn tiring! Fortunately, I found a spot. Get all my gear prepared then wait for the show. *Rest for a while*
The show started at 9.55pm, ok I don’t want to talk more. Enjoy the pictures.
*Dial-up users, sorry ya.. this post contains lot of pictures, so be patient ya.
Yeah, opening shot by last year MIFC 2007 winner, Australia team.

The colourful one….









Hohoho… I like this one..











The red balls.






Somehow, it looks like….hmmm… what ya?





















Last shot, the biggest one. Damn hard to capture this!

Ok, that’s all. Be free to drop your comment ya. I really appreciate it. Still lot to learn.
p/s: Who wants to buy me a DSLR? hahaha..

Not bad, I get quite a nice idea of the overall display. Did you try zooming in? Can you crop the pictures to get just the fireworks and not include all of the lake and building next to it and everything?
julians last blog post..Prime Minister moonlighting in Beijing?
@julian, thanks for the comment and for the tips!
nice shots! i agree with @julian – maybe u can crop or zoom nearer to the fireworks for some shots, though i still like the effect of having the lake and partial of the bridge in the pics. i did some shot during the China team’s display – without DSLR, too. (you can see some of my pics here – http://www.flickr.com/ch3rylised & feel free to comment as well)

@ch3ryl, thanks again for your comment! I tried crop the pictures and it looks fine since my camera is 7.1MP, so for 500px X 370px size of pictures, it just nice.
I also have shots for China team but the spot is not so good compare to this one, you can see all here – http://izzatruslan.com/2008/08/17/malaysia-international-firework-competition-mifc-2008-at-picc-putrajaya-team-china/ Anyway that not so nice since it was my first time shooting firework. But anyway, it is a good experience for me.
I saw your pictures at Flickr, damn nice. You got really a good spot for shooting the firework for this event. I hope I can be there next year.
p/s: I also want a DSLR! Who want to buy me one?!!
