Hi guys,
Well this was the 1st time ive ever tried to take pics of fireworks, so armed with my new 055pro legs i got down to the edge of the water with 10000000 other people and took some pics 
Ive only had my D70 for less than a month, my first slr so yeah im still learning HEAPS, and i know photos or fireworks are pretty generic, but i personally like how these came out due to the lighthouse, boats, and heads of people in the crowd. Makes it a little bit more interesting, i think so anyway:)
Anyway tell me what you think

Thanks, thats my fav too Its a pitty water moves, and thus the boats move and become less sharp, but it was fun, learnt a lot.

This pics should all have EXIF data if you click the blue info "i" icon, but in general they were 1-3 seconds exposure i think.

Nice work! I really like the third one. I think you're right, the action in the foreground and midground really help the shots.

Ah yes, Fireworks. Difficult to get right but when you do they can be spectacular.
I really like the framing and the purple colour drift of shot 9/11.

Iscar,
I agree, the people lighthouses, boats... do add a dimension to the fireworks. Well done.
Cheers
