 The local fireworks show for Independence Day. This shot was featured in the local weekly newspaper this week, a 5X7 color, front page center.
Monopod, 15sec @f16, Fisheye Nikkor 16mm.
Two other totally different shots are featured this week, in another paper published by the same people for a town about 25 miles away, and both of them were also front page center 5X7's. Woo Hoo! exposure!

One of the nicest fireworks shots I've seen - lyrical rather than popping.

i'm confused by the 15second exposure tho .. ?? .. i would'v thought the shutter speed would be a lot slower than that .. i notice f16 .. my brain cant compute a 15 second exposure and the appearance of the fireworks .. ?? ..:).. i'm not very knowledgeable about the long exposure photography .. :)

Beautiful. Never thought about it to make a firework photo with a fisheye lens. Must be nice to get in a local newspaper! Congrats.
