Fireworks!

[Phazan]

This is my first try at shooting fireworks..I think I did alright.

My town is having a special event, so they put on a firework show tonight... I chose to take pictures rather than hang out across the street with my friends, so you better like them!

Very good for your first effort. I'll put forward one thought, and that is: Firework images often look better if there is something to 'anchor' them; that is a dim skyline, building, or similar.

Hey, thanks for the comment.
I tried getting some of the forground in them, but there wasn't enough light (Even with a 30 sec exposure). I would have used my flash, but those turned out pretty crappy..not to mention, I think the constant flashes would have annoyed everyone. Next time I'll pick a better spot
