I waited for close to an hour in a certain choice strategic place standing up in hoards of people to get these photos. I hate crowds so this was a real sacrifice for me to get these photos. This was once in a lifetime photo session for me.

Beautiful! You should contact the Disney folks. I'll bet they would love them for advertisements, and the tourists would love to buy them to take home!

Brent, great captures of a singular event. I went to Disney World in my pre-digital camera days, and have always wanted to go back. They put on one spectacular fireworks display!

Interesting filter! May I ask which one it is?

Very true Bob.......but I think it's important to be in the right place to photograph it. Like I said, I waited for an hour in my "spot" just to get these photos.
I used 2 filters: oil paint and poster edges in "photoshop CS6".....then erased out the overlaying filter layer where the castle was to show the original castle with the sharpness.

Nicely done Brent, especially as you were in a crowd - were you hand-holding? exif shows f8 and 1/60sec, with ISO shifting to suit. I'm surprised 1/60sec caught so much firework action, I would normally try 2-6 seconds on a tripod. Your settings give me something to think about!
