Beautiful. So many firework shots are boring, but with the people watching it adds so much to the picture.

I have seen many fireworks shots but this one is different because of the people profile in the forefront. Very nicely done!

Fireworks and hot air balloons always make nice photos. Lots of color and your exposure was on-the-nose.

A STUNNING capture. A most perfect fireworks photo. The fireworks are crisp and clean and perfectly exposed -- and the silhouetted people add the human interest. I love it! one of my favorites so far.

nice composition... the people on the foreground was used as a scaling reference on how enormous the fireworks was. a little tweeking in exposure and levels would give it a little more plus points for me.
