Default Happy Canada Day 2008! ...or, my first time shooting fireworks!

Man, that was fun! First off, let me say that I was standing too close, but by the time I realized it, it was just too late to move. As a result, some of them are poorly framed, but I've cropped and chopped where I could in the editing room.

There are a few in here that I intentionally moved the camera around to get some sort of neat effect as well.

This one's a biggy, hope you like 'em images/smilies/smile.gif

What did I learn? Well, next time, I'll stand much further back, have a longer lens and figure out how to rotate the tripod before the event so I can get some vertical shots images/smilies/wink.gif

I have full 6 megapixel copies of all of these if anyone wants a wallpaper.
