Most of mine were shot at f11, ISO 100 and they were either 1 or 2 seconds. The first shot is very nice. Still confused though that it's a 10 second shot. :) |
I took a lot at 10 seconds as well - mostly because there were so many going off at once, I wanted to get multiple bursts. In that case, I put the apeture down to 22 to let in less light.

I think you mean we didnt have one this year because of the 2 posts you referenced. People whine and complain when Everything on this site doesnt cater directly to them

Just kidding -- I know your post was a joke at the time. I just thought it was funny. |

I like the cropping on picture one better than 2 but that's just me. I never thought of getting a bit of the audience illuminated, kind of neat.
bummer on the rainout  undieyatch, it took me a minute to understand why you posted that image lol...I'm slow. |

Mine for the 4th. Square crop for the 50 in my life. This one was a six second exposure.
Tnx cpanaioti for catching my coding error.

Never done this before. It was fun, but I never quite figured out how to controll things.
Fireworks started very early, sky was still light, but there was a perfect cloud for backdrop.

other than the flagish looking light streak over on the right this is my fav. I love the way the light trails are like dotted lines instead of just straight. Got some interesting patterns here. |

WHooo! I captured my first firework! :)
I was really bummed out though because our view had powerlines! We got there right as they were starting, so I shot what I could. This ended up being my fave, after cropping out the power lines.
I wonder if I should have sharpened it more? I'm never can tell what is "enough" sharpening. Hmmm.... |
