I have tried but not very successfully yet! Love your shots, especially the third one. Care to share your techniques and settings?

Thanks for your comments. Camera on a tripod, cable release, pre-focus on the area where the fireworks will be. Camera settings, camera on manual, aperture f8 to f16, shutter speed 1 to 5 seconds. There will usually be a loud bang when they fire a display, wait about 1 or 2 seconds before you open the shutter.

Here's a few from this year's display. Canon 6D, ISO 200, f11, bulb with cable release. Opened the shutter when firework first launched, closed when the display began to dissolve...

Thanks. I really enjoy shooting fireworks! You have to shoot a ton of images but there's nothing like working with the ones that capture your vision.
