 Playing with my new camera in one of my favourite areas for night shots and stumbled across a small fireworks display. Rotated, cropped, selective adjustments to exposure in different areas. Burned top half of image to remove smoke from fireworks. Bumped contrast and saturation, resized, USM, border, saved for web.

Nice idea for a photo. To me, it feels like it's lacking sharpness.

Fireworks over Sydney and now Perth. I̢۪ve been away a bit this month. Did I miss some celebration in November? I̢۪m pretty hopeless at night photography and haven̢۪t tried to capture fireworks yet so I̢۪m probably not the best to criticise but the building lights just don̢۪t seem as clear as other̢۪s I̢۪ve seen. However, the colours are fantastic, especially those reflected in the water. Overall, a pleasing image.
