Fireworks are nice but having seen so many of them I really need something else in the frame to make it work for me, foreground or backround... Same applies to lighting photos and aurora boralis for example, just those alone do nothing for me unless captured very unusually. 5
The little "brother" is cute but he's wasting space. Crop away the right half of the pic and there's a more focused shot to look at. Nice catch on the two bursts. 5
