Sorry but for me this is just not a very interesting photo. First off it´s black and white wich means no interesting colors as what is so good about fireworks in the first place. Secondly, there is no real detail in the shot, blown highlights or just pitch black with a hint of a hand in the right corner and I really require image quality to like most shot´s. Unless this is all intentional I encourage you to use a smaller aperture/lower ISO or both next time when shooting fireworks. Thus I voted 3.

Black and white is not the realm for fireworks shots.

Well, I'm pleased to see that the vast majority of the votes on this one were 5's--right smack dab in the middle. I knew the subject of this shot was probably going to be difficult to sell, and I think I've learned a lot from the commentators. The shot is clearly overexposed--beyond effectiveness, I think--and its a little blurry. I sincerely appreciate everyone's opinions, and we'll keep on pluggin'. Practice is what this is all about for me...learn what works and what doesn't.

Personally, I'm bustin' about just breaking the 5.0 mark with this one.
