Glad u like it.
What it P&S?

My settings:
1) The most impt thing to have is a tripod. Err... $20+ from careffour.

2) F6.3/7.1. I tried F8, but its too dark, and having longer exposure will have too many fireworks pattern overlap all together.

3) Depending on the type of fireworks, I switched the exposure time from 4-8secs. I don't have a remote, thus I use my judgement by listening to the music. Usually in a fireworks show, the start and end will be BRIGHT, with alot of patterns all going up at once quickly, for a short time. Hence, the exposure time should will shorter, e.g. 3-4 secs.
In the middle, if the music is slower... the patterns usually are darker and more lasting, and there are lesser flowers. This is the time you can breathe and compose urself. Try to spot a rising red dot, once u sees that, start exposure, until the entire flower is opened. =) This way, you will be able to see the entire "flower" with its "stem". Exposure about 6-8 secs.
8 secs may be too long if F8.0. I know of ppl who exposure for 15 secs, with >=F8.0.

4) white balance... err... I dunno... so AUTO lor.. =)

Wah pro! Predict fireworks pattern with music!! :thumbsup:
