Take advantage of night mode

The Diwali celebrations often start after dusk. Avoid using flash while taking nighttime shots since it washes the colours out of the images. Use your device's night mode instead. The setting has a tendency to brighten the image without removing its original colours. For better-lit photographs, you might wish to enable HDR functionality on your smartphone.

Adjust shutter speed

Shutter speed, ISO, and aperture are a crucial trinity for adjusting exposure in photographs. The 'Pro mode' feature, which allows users to manually adjust these settings, is implemented by smartphone manufacturers on phones.

Set up your frame

It's important to frame your shot while taking a picture. Adjust the focus on the flame in order to click a blazing diya. Similar to this, it is best to compose the frame first while taking pictures of blazing firecrackers. As much as you can, try to keep your device steady. A tripod can be used for stability if necessary.

Increase exposure

To take effective Diwali pictures, experiment with the device's exposure. You may do it manually or with the assistance of third-party applications like Long Exposure Camera 2, which can change it for you automatically.

Adjust brightness

The majority of smartphones let you manually adjust brightness when taking pictures. To make the most of the space, make sure it is well illuminated. Particularly during Diwali, it is best to keep the light on the dim side. Once you've taken a picture, you may edit it or add filters.
