I don't usually go for firework pics but these are great, the reflected light on the water is terrific

Thanks Gary
Always looking to improve as I don't think the learning curve will ever end!
Was playing around layering some together in Photoshop to make a composite image:

These are superb Gareth, very skilfully done. I like that you haven't tried to include too many fireworks in a single image, which focuses attention on the ones that are there. That composite image you've posted afterwards is a real winner too. You should consider entering these in a competition.

Really strong set.
You have done an excellent job on these.
The reflections on 4 seem out of place compared to the colours of the fireworks for some reason, but the composite is bang on.
Great shooting

These are nice. I didn't bother with fireworks this year as I struggle to find somewhere with a decent foreground / setting, and I think the water really helps here.
