First time taking pictures of fireworks since I've bought my DSLR. I think I should have messed around more with the shutter speed but I don't think they're bad at all. Could just be me though. [emoji5]

Two more things before I stop rambling:

1. There was just an empty field of grass in front of me so I didn't really capture any foreground.
2. I didn't think it would be so hard to aim lol. One second the fireworks are all in the same spot then all of a sudden they're going somewhere else and I couldn't adjust my camera anymore since I set a long shutter speed on it. [emoji24]

Let me know if you guys got any tips! Thanks a bunch.

I like the last one the most. I would have went a little wider if possible to not cut off the tops. Shutter seems ok. Lots of shutter times work for different looks.
 
I think my lens was already at it's widest. And, as I wrote earlier, it could have been just where I was pointing the camera. The fireworks for the last one were higher than the previous set, that's why it's a little bit cut off.

I pretty much kept my shutter speed and ISO a constant and changed up my aperture here and there. But, now, I think I should have played with the shutter speed instead.

I like the first one the best.

The third and forth ones have too long of a shutter speed, at least for me. IMO, the squiggles are overpowering the image.

Yeah, I agree. Those last ones are a little crazy looking with too much going on but some people liked them that way so I decided to post them anyway. [emoji23]
