 I truly expect a lot of shots like this, so I don't know if it will do well. I, for one, like it, and thought it was neat.

Taken with, I think, between a 2 and 3 second exposure at the 4th of july celebration.

I really like this picture. I tried to get some shots of fireworks myself, but they didn't come out anywhere near as well as this. Beautiful picture.

An excellent rendition of fireworks - but I must say you are in a huge anmount of competition for that idea. This one is really nicely done.

This is a really well executed shot. It stands out from the crowd of fireworks photos. The composition really makes this shot what it is. The varying textures are all in beautiful balance.

Did you get lucky or did you mean to do this? I'm looking forward to end of the challenge so that I can read the comments you hopefully left with this image. I love it. Most photos of fireworks are a little boring to me but this is very eye catching. Nice job! One thing though... you see that little trail of light on the right? I would have cloned that out as it detracts from your image just a little bit.

Seems a tad overexposed and oversharpened although that could be the effect of resizing.
