Thanx TravlnWomyn. I read in Popular Photography & Imaging magazine, which I recently subscribed to (great magazine by the way) on how to shoot fireworks. Among their recommendations was to include some buildings in the picture to give the fireworks perspective. Also to put more than one burst in the frame by shooting on the "bulb" setting and putting a black card in front of the lens between bursts. A couple of good pieces of advice I employed here.

Well done, Alex. Only rain up here, but this was worth waiting for. You captured everything beyond the spectacular fireworks alone. Beautiful. Vicki
