In the 2nd shot, is that a Navy guided missle cruiser being led to dock, or was it already docked?

I like the first, third and fourth.. the fourth one is interesting because the burst is so long!

Great first attempt! Number 2 is my favorite composition. I like that you included the crowd watching as it gives more of a sense of place. It looks as if white balance should have been adjusted to rid the crowd and surroundings of the orange cast. A graduated ND filter, or an HDR comprised of 2 shots would allow for the fireworks and the crowd to be properly exposed instead of the highlights being blown out.

thanks for the tip pentaxis! I appreciate it. As for the ship, it was already there. I do love how long the last one was. It was a beauty to see in person!

Great shots you got. I love the fact that you were able to have some kind of scenery in there with them. All I had were trees. Good job.

thanks. That was my main thing. I had to have something other than just sky and smoke.
