Fireworks

I know I'm going a little out of order, but I wanted to post a few of my fireworks pictures.  So it turns out that there is a reward for working through every mistake and ruined picture that I take in Manual mode, and that reward is a night like this.  Happy Birthday, America!

All pictures were taken at ISO-80, f/22; I only changed the shutter speed.

These are absolutely amazing! Did you use a tripod for those longer shots?

Thanks! I used a tripod for all the shots that night. We went to a local fireworks show the night before and I didn't use a tripod. Huge difference!
