This seems like a good beginning ...... it took me 3 years to get my settings "just right". Keep at it and you'll get better.

Hello Jim;
Some members published firework shots yesterday, and for the most part they were VERY sharp and the lights "frozen" as opposed to showing "movement."
I wanted to know what are the settings that were used in producing firework images such as that.
The reason being is that I belong to a photo club, and the instructor said "use a tripod, manual focus set to infinity, Bulb shutter speed, and use a remote control to take the image." I did all of that, but my images (besides being far away,) showed smoke, (in some,) and in almost ALL, seemed to have a shutter speed that would have been deemed "too slow" as each "beam of light" looked like a "palm tree branch," with light just "dripping" off of the exploding light.. (If you get the drift.)
BTW My questions have nothing to do with the posting of this member's images, it's the only way I know how to attach something to a thread with the subject matter I am asking about.
