Well, seeing as 52% ( was it ? ) of American voters are celebrating, and we are celebrating Bonfire Night tonight, I thought I'd post these for fun.
And for C&C of course

I like the simplicity of No. 3 but wonder if it would be better fully portrait, given the vertical trajectory of the rockets :

Nice fireworks, I like no.1 in particular.

What sort of shutter/aperture technique did you use to get these?

Thanks guys!

I'll check the exif when I get home ( if I remember ), but I tried various settings. I kept the camera on manual everything. I think aperture was about 3.5 and shutter speed was about 1/4 second....but that's from memory and could be wrong.

Yep, I was wrong.

Taken from the EXIF info.

All 3 pics.
Program : Manual
ISO : 200
Shutter Speed : 1/60
Aperture : 3.5
Focal Leghth : 18.0mm

BTW, is there a way to copy and paste the EXIF info into here from either Paintshop Pro or Silkypix?
