What lens did you use at those settings?
I forgot to add this as well...For fireworks I usually use something very wide such as my 20/2.8D. I would suggest something wider than 50. Best of luck.

I used f22 at ISO 125 for 5-8 sec. for this shot last Monday of the Detroit International Fireworks as seen from Windsor, Ontario. These settings get the colors deeper. The shutter speed of 5-8 seconds is mainly for the number of bursts you will capture.
Nicely done!

Some amazing shots above!
Lots of good info on settings used too, for me I love when people share their settings and how they work out!

Tripod of course, ISO 100, bulb at around 4 to 6 seconds (open shutter when the rocket is launched and close when the light dissipates), f11. Make sure you turn off any stabilization on the lens. Focus to infinity and then back off slightly or focus on something under where the rockets will explode. This was shot at Monday's fireworks using this formula.
