I think this is my best shot of the night. I did edit the image; some may think too much. Even though I am happy overall, I wish I had the whole top firework in the picture. Close, but no cigars. C&C is always welcome.

Critique and advice are always appreciated, even when it's brutally honest.

That's a GREAT shot! Our air was completely still here, so I opted not to even bother...glad I didn't. Wouldn't have gotten much at all tonight.

Nice one! Sometimes it's actually better for the composition to have the subject up against the edge like that. I wouldn't worry about it. What I might want to do is to move the smaller one over to the right in order to balance things better:

Thanks for the tip, rhsfhs. That gives me some ideas to make some of the less good photos better.
