These are my first Fireworks photos ever. :) I never had a DSLR until now, so its a ton of fun to get to play, when i get a chance like this.

There are a few things id have done differently. :) Overall though, for my first time, i definitely think i did pretty darn good! There are LOTS more than this, but i picked out some of the ones that i liked in my first editing session.

All of these were taking at Limerock Park Speedway in CT. :) I try to go to these every year.

Thunderstorms I can deal with. Explosions and the concussion that comes with much of that, especially if you got front row seats :D, is just something I have a hard time with now. I enjoyed the pictures though. :yessir:

I agree Alicia. the sound is also what makes them so nice. thunderstorms are very relaxing and soothing to the ears =). Great shots of the fireworks. i cant tell by seeing them pics it's a first time for you. Very nice job on capturing those shots.

You and me both Quigster. I was nervous as a long tail cat in a room full of rocking chairs this weekend..... But I do like to see the fireworks!

Awesome shots Alicia!
