I just absolutely love Fireworks at this time of year! Those fireworks shots you took were excellent, I can't seem to pick a favorite, hehe.

These are much, much better than any fireworks shots I've managed. Perhaps it's time to invest in a better camera and read some of those articles.

Some of those fireworks shots are amazing. I love the long shutter speeds and what you can do with them. Just another reason to own a good solid tripod to use to shoot the fireworks.
