Thanks for the invite, Dan! Here's my favorite shot:

http://i.pbase.com/o4/60/643160/1/62978529.QLXFqF4E.fireworksblue.jpg

This is actually a composite of 3 images. The star-shaped and the hourglass-shaped explosions were each located on the lower left where the Mickey ears firework is. I had a 1D and 17-40 mounted on a tripod and actuated the shots by hand without mirror lock-up. Here's the EXIF:

Flash Used: No
Focal Length: 22.0mm
