My fireworks shots have never been close to what you guys are posting, so I won't embarrass myself by posting. It would be great for those who posted their pics without information, if they could add any shooting details and advice. Thanks guys, some really nice work here. |

A few of mine from last year:    I use the same techniques that have already been discussed. Edited by rachp on Jun 27, 2008 at 08:14 AM GMT |

I haven't taken many fireworks photos, unfortunately. This is about the only one. This was taken out my front window at my house in Germany (when I lived there). I believe this is New Year's Eve 2005 or 2006. Yes, these are the fireworks that my neighbors set off in the street. Taken with my old DRebel, and probably the Sigma 18-125mm, but I can't remember.  This is also a composite of photos I took from a boat on Lake Michigan, looking towards Chicago. It's not a real scene, as I had no tripod and no way to keep the shutter open long enough to record a sharp city and then streaking fireworks (which aren't perfect since I was moving during their exposure). So, the fireworks are taken seperately and then inserted into the pic of Chicago. Taken at the same time, and all on July 4, but it is not a real image (which is likely apparent anyway).  |

Here is my best shot from last year. I have a better version someplace with less noise but I cant find it right now. Sorry for the large size.  |

And a few of mine from last year...    Looking forward to this 4th this year. Hope the smoky sky (I'm in northern California) has cleared by then. |

"Yes, but more importantly, I betcha they are all shot with Nikons (since only Nikon can make camera able to take these shots)" |

Whats your reasoning here? |

Great shots guys. Keep them coming. Let's not dishonor our forefathers who gave their lives to give us this great America we know today by making this into another Canon vs Nikon thread. Let's celebrate this Fourth of July for America and symbolically for all other countries' Independence around the globe by showing us your Fireworks please! |

A couple from an event last year. I prefer to have a foreground in my fireworks shots.   |

Here are some, that I shot during Thunder Over Louisville 2008. It is widely regarded as one of the Largest Fireworks Shows in the World, and is the longest at 30 minutes.           Here is the direct link to my gallery on Flickr, of all the images from Thunder: Images from Thunder Over Louisville 2008 |

 this one was hard as it was at the end of a long day and i don't perform well when shattered. used about a 3 second ex and ran around setting of a hand held flash gun to illuminate the bridal party. the grass is flouro like that from the light. no photoshopping. www.kirstinprisk.com |

After seeing some of these amazing images, I was quite hesitant to post some of my attempts. |
