I love my DA*16-50, although as soon as I got it I wished I had the 50-135 as well.

You need to use ISO100, bulb mode, a tripod, remote release, F8 and a zoom lens.
Make sure the lens is pre-focused and the camera is set to manual focus.
Open the shutter at the beginning of an explosion and close it when you feel it has reached climax.
One last thing, make sure black frame noise reduction is turned off or you miss half the shots!

I think they could do with a bit more punch, increased contrast and a bit more saturation as they are a little flat.
What program are you using for processing the photos?
Looks like a bit of a hazy day, can really make it difficult to get a nice colour shot. Have you tried high contrast black and white for impact?
I think it would work well with the buildings.

You must be, you read it
I think I may have seen something along these lines somewhere else previously... Can't remember where though.
It made me chuckle.

Probably not something you want to hear though.
I borrows both the soft and the standard lightspheres in December and liked how they worked but not the price. I came up with my own solution to the problem with some 'free' packaging from something I must have ordered.

Weekends give much more time to shoot and anyone who is working won't be quite as tired as straight after work in the evening.
I prefer weekends...
I have no idea where to go though. I was considering visiting Roundhay Park and 'Leeds Tropical World' as I've never been. Saw some good photos from there posted on DPreview forums by a Canadian bloke who was on holiday in Yorkshire a while back.

Sounds good although as it is past the 21st of June days are now getting shorter again
Any ideas of where this one would be?

Wow!
I nearly fell into the photo...
I really like it, yes it would make a very good album cover. But the red looks clipped and posterised.
