hand held without any tripod. 4 to 5 sec Shutter Open

A remarkable series of pictures, remarkable because the light, because the camera was handheld, because the location is fantastic and because they are excellent pictures.
I remember being impressed by your first waterfall, well done ABY

Wow its photos like these that make me feel so amatuer! LOL! I really adore the fireworks shot, I only have a digital camera, though its a decent one, samsung 10.2 megapixels, and on my scene mode I have a fireworks option, I have wanted to test it for months but we have not had any fireworks in town to test it out. I can't wait for the fourth of July so that I might get to try it. The colors are so vibrant and bold against the dark sky and it goes splendidly with the beautiful city lights. Amazing steady hand as others have said as well. I just recently splurged on a 42 inch tripod and a 6 inch table tripod because I have such shaky hands and it was starting to show in my photos. Excellent work

Truly amazing even if they was with a tripod, so without these are awe inspiring, you must have very steady hands.
