Anybody have any sick or just regular shots of the fourth of July fireworks? I know it's only and American holiday and most internationals probably don't care. I took a couple and uploaded some of my favorites, they might not be the best, but I like how these ones came out:

I'd love to see any of yours and compare them to mine. Criticism is welcome, but it's not really what I want this thread to be filled with. I hope you guys got some dope shots and I'd love to see them!

I wish I had brought a tripod because there is a ton of noise in some of them

I wonder if anyone left their shutter on all night and just captured all of the fireworks in one shot...

Might do that next year....

The fireworks show around my way is less than impressive so I decided to take an abstract look at things and came up with this short piece as a result. Input is always appreciated. Enjoy.

It looks like the smoke from the finale (I'm assuming). Just showing the amount of fireworks that went off maybe?
