Default Fireworks

I've had the camera for literally months. But I tried to follow the advice on this week's tutorial. They're not very good looking, but i was pleased.
ISO: 100
f/ 8
Shutter: Bulb (most about 4-5 seconds using remote)

Some got a little over exposed, and I had a tree line to deal with, so the crops are bad. Next year I'll get a better angle. I actually like the one without much color the best. (A boom-boomer)

These are great, you should be proud of yourself. These are a difficult subject to say the least and you captured them very well. I especially like #1 and #3 the most.

I think your fireworks came out really good. I did some too. I got some tips from a few different places and I had my f at f/16. I was hearing numbers anywhere from 11 to 16. I don't have the remote yet but that is next on my list.
