Great shots everyone!
To all who replied to the Canon vs Nikon post and the gear post--Boy, it sure didn't take you long to take the bait did it. Did some of you help out that poor Nigerian fellow get his money from the American bank? :-)

Lots of nice images here, well done guys.

Here is something a little different.... hand held & "fast" shutter to freeze action, rather than the traditional fireworks long shutter & trails.

Are you from South Dakota or Wyoming? My brother lives in Osage, WY just across the border (1 1/2 hours from Rushmoore, give or take a few mins). =o)

I was just there a month ago with the family, etc.

Nice shots!

Tim, no actually just took these on vacation with my family. Although it was a bit of work to see the fireworks (had to park more than 3 miles away and hike with the gear and chairs, etc) it was really a nice event and well worth the effort.

I agree... well worth it. I'm glad you took the effort and reap the rewards. =o)

Very nice, Tony. The people in the foreground gives it a nice sense of scale.

These are all just great! But there is something about this one that is very simple but eerie, ominous, and surreal!

Ditto. This one is amazing. I'd like to hang a print of this.

Bloody hell!!! I was looking for infos on shooting fireworks last year just before NYE and I never thought about searching the gear forum!! Who woulda thought?

Anyway, some great shots here. A little suggestion, perhaps the OP can collate the info and post them in the first post?

Very nicely done, Clarence. The 1st one with nothing but red/white/blue sparkles is terrific!

I'd be happy to, n0b0...but someone's got to do the collating, pm it to me so it doesn't get buried in these posts, and I can put it in the first post as a quick reference for everyone. In otherwords, the collating of info. seems a bit of work which I prefer not to be responsible for, but if someone does that work, I'd be glad to place it in the first post to help out.
