Those are all great shots.

I've tried taking pictures of fireworks before, and it's not as easy as you might think. Too long of an exposure and you get long flowing streaks that are reminiscent of a weeping willow tree. Too short and you don't get enough light or the trails are just not impressive enough.

I guess after a few tries you figure out the optimal exposure. Timing is critical too. I suppose burst mode would be handy here.
