I am still learning and am very much a beginner. But I went to my towns Fire Work show tonight and practiced.

These are no where as nice as what those of you that regularly post, but I am happy that I at least got the lens cap off...

I had my camera set to BULB mode for the shutter release and used my wired remote. I played with the f stop probably more than I should have, but for my first ever attempt at capturing fireworks, I am pleased. I would enjoy reading what critiques you all may have.

See the entire gallery here....

Link to a short video, from the middle of the show. I forgot to open up the f-STOP and it is a little dark. Its so/so (ok?) I guess.

Link to video of the finale, same story as the previous video... aperture is to small, I should have opened it up some so it would not have been so dark, well I think I should have used a smaller fStop???....
