Fireworks!

If interested in more examples see my earlier thread, where I got some good results and described what exposure settings I used. https://www.pentaxuser.com/forum/topic/fireworks--30273

Also, as somebody here mentioned, use manual focus, preset it and leave it where it is. Never try to use autofocus, it just isn't up to the job!

Use tripod and, if possible, remote shutter release (cable or wireless).
