LONG SHUTTER SPEED

Three words : LONG SHUTTER SPEED

I used an 8 second shutter time. I've read in books, some people prefer 10-20 second shutter speeds.

Hope that helps!

too bad fireworks are illegal where I live in Australia, and there are rarely shows that put them on any more, because of the costs of licenses etc
I remember what fun they were as a kid, when all the people in our street would pool resources for Guy Fawkes' (sp?) night, with a bonfire and rockets and whizzers - the whole shebang!
the only thing we can buy are sparklers but the kids love those too
would a photo of kids waving sparklers count? LOL

Definitely kids with sparklers would count! Are fireworks illegal because of environmental issues, too dry, fire hazards?

Here's mine taken at the Brantford Canada Day Celebration this past Friday...
using normal camera settings, this is the only one that turned out half decent..
