We had a great view from our appt :) Turned out to be a great night after the crappy day!
Nice catch , I have tried to take photos of fireworks before... I need more practice. I find it tough to get it as crisp as you did, nice job!

Thanks to all for the nice comments. I really appreciate them.

@cdallacosta: I've sent you a Flickr mail.

@JEm: In addition to using a tripod I recommend to use a remote switch for the release (or a delay timer, but this makes the timing harder). Then use Bulb mode to entirely control the timing. You need to experiment a little which aperture matches the typical time frames you are after. Shooting RAW, finally gives you a bit more latitude to correct exposure later on.

Excellent! Fireworks are not that easy to capture, especially multiples!
