2009 Fireworksthe Mayflower, Plymouth Harbor-Plymouth, MA 7-4-09

My first real attempt at fireworks pics with my tripod and new remote (I used manual mode and set it to "bulb" mode as my shutter speed). There was too much light around me and not enough practice...next 4th they'll be better!!) I was in Plymouth Harbor and got there last minute, so had to go with the spot I had (my bad, lesson learned!!!!). The Mayflower was directly in front of me so you can see her mast and riggings in most of the shots. I took over 600 pics and uploaded only 54 of them (after lots of cropping and some digitally zooming).
