Fireworks

Fireworks by javajive.
We spent the 4th of July on the dock watching fireworks across the lake, both crouched down on our stomachs to stabilize the shot - we had a tripod but the effort to get it out of the house was just.too.much.

Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L USM @ f/10 2.5sec

Tripods are a pain in the arse...

Excellent results without, though!

I have a great Manfrotto tripod and pistol grip head that unfortunately stayed in Indonesia this summer, because I find myself using handheld methods for 99% of my shots. I find it's much less intimidating with many subjects throughout Asia, and allows for much more flexibility in shooting style. I'm going to get into more low light/night shots this year and will need to drag that badboy out with me more often.

I use my tripod for HDR shots and low-light weddings without flash. The 40D is really good in Low light situations with little noise.
