This was my first time ever shooting fireworks. I have a ton to learn but it's a lot of fun! They may not be as good as some others on here but I thought I'd share anyway.

I think this is my favorite. It was #8 but I moved it to the top. :D

    I really like #7 with the Arch and the blob of color reflecting off the water. Looks like a great show! Thanks for sharing.

    Very nice work. Much better than my results, 422 out of focus shots. Oh well I will recycle the electrons.

    Thanks, guys! I think I like #8 the best. I have a bunch of shots from the past two nights. It was fun but I think I'm done with fireworks until next year. It was a 4 hour deal JUST to get 15 minutes worth of pics last night. I guess it was worth it but the congestion in downtown St. Louis is almost unbearable when the fair is going on. Not doing it tonight! :( Looking forward to next year though!

    Hey, mods, can you change post title to St. Louis Fireworks? I tried to do it but it wouldn't work. I should have named it correctly from the beginning but didn't think about it until all the other firework pics from different cities started popping up. Thanks!
