Photographing KFOG’s 2010 Kaboom Fireworks Display in San Francisco

Every year, KFOG, a San Francisco radio station, hosts it’s Kaboom fireworks show. This year the KFOG Kaboom celebration is taking place at Candlestick Park on Saturday, May 22, but as you can see from the below photos, there are far better places to take amazing photos of the event.

• Flickr member Sharpshutter has compiled an amazing list of possible shooting locations, complete with maps.
• Other flikr members discuss possible locations and meetups
• Bernal Heights has been thrown around as a good spot to take photos
• Check Meetup.com for a ton of photography groups that might be getting together to take photos
• Finally, you can always take amazing photos from the event itself. Tickets are available at Ticketmaster.com or at the door.

In the mean time, enjoy these amazing photos from previous KFOG Kaboom events.
