Fireworks At Coney Island

Friday, July 10th, We will meet at the base of the Parachute Jump at 7:30 PM *Subway: F, Q, R, N trains to Coney Island Stillwell Avenue.* Coney Island has fireworks on the beach every Friday during the summer. It's the perfect place to shoot some long exposures or practice sunset and low-light evening photography. So get ready for some sunset photography. After the sun goes down, we can shoot long exposures of the rides and attractions in anticipation of the main event: the fireworks! The fireworks start at 9:45 PM. Luna Park recommends that the main area of the amusement park is one of the best places to watch the sky light up above the rides. The boardwalk or the beach itself are also great viewpoints. Those who aren't interested in the fireworks can continue shooting long exposures of the rides. Tripods would be useful at this Meetup, but owners need to be mindful of the amusement park rules, and careful of other people when using them. Otherwise, all cameras, cell phones and picture-taking devices of all sorts are welcome, as are all persons at any skill level. Just come and enjoy an evening at the seaside. Please be on time! The NYC Subway System is a hellscape of unimaginable delays that will wreak havoc on your mind, body, schedule, and soul. Plan your trip with some extra time! *However, at this meetup we won’t be far away and should be easy to find on the boardwalk if you should arrive late.* Details of this event may be added or changed at any time, so please check in periodically on this page. Cellular phone numbers are private and will not be provided. If you have questions, please leave them in the comments below before the event begins. *Disclaimer: Participation in these events requires that you assume all risks associated with these activities and that the Organizers, Co-Organizers, and Event Hosts are in no way liable for any tickets/summons, loss, theft, damage, illness or injury as a result of your participation.
