I didn't bother to bring my tripod and just carried my SX40. Didn't expect much but I was pretty impressed with my results since they were hand held. I don't have a very steady hand. I just used the fireworks scene setting because I've never shot fireworks before. Not sure why the top one is so big because I resized them both the same. Sorry about that.
