A different "take" on fireworks. Got bored with my previous years "usual shots" with an open shutter, (Firebirds! On shooting fireworks...), & thought I'd experiment with something different this year.

Most are at 1/6 sec. with several images in a sequence blended together. This is what I had in mind for a result.
1.

2.

6. This one was pretty busy so I only used every other shot.

7. A single frame of the finale. A lot happened in 1/6 sec!

I agree, reinforced by the fact that they had 160+ views without a comment? :D And, thanks for that!
But it gave me something different to do & kept me out of trouble. ;)

I like 3 and 5.

Are those two photos, single images?

Don't try to confuse me with the facts, my mind is already made up.

I think #5 is 4 or 5 images. Only #7 is a single image.

Thanks for the comments.

Have fun with it, but I don't think I'd do it again the next time.
