Very nice collection! I particularly like the ones with the water reflection. For those of us who have never done fireworks, can you share your technique here?

Nice job!
I like the reflections and also the background (especially #4) with the sunset.

The 4th of July will be here in 2 days and I am hoping to get some good firework photos as well. But right now we have 80% chance of rain that day so it's not looking too promising.

This one is the best because of being able to see the buildings.

This is kinda what I am talking about..

I agree if the ground was a bit more lit up they would look a bit better how ever in the situation I was in I dont think i could of got that result.

I was standing on a hill in middle of no where with no light at all except the LCD on my camera lol. The way my camera was set it was grabbing the exposure from the sky. If I were to grab exporer of the ground it would of overexposed everything.
