How to white balance at night?
 
Was shooting at night a bonfire and fireworks display. Was wondering how I should white balance. There was not enough light around to do a manual white balance but wasn't sure whether to use the indoor or outdoor setting and then use the +-7 values to adjust it, but again not sure how I identify white with just yellow flames of the bonfire for reference?

Thanks

Kevin

If you want the bonfire to look the appropriate orange, use the default tungsten (indoor) setting. White balancing to the fire will neutralize the color which may seem less interesting.
