Anyone get any good photos? Didn't get to see a fireworks display myself so had to resort to buying my own Sparklers seem cooler to take photos of though
Was struggling with shutter delay, either set it too fast or too slow  |

I was working on a 3 second shutter delay, but found with most rockets you needed it pretty quick to get nice-ish ones - about 1/50? Still didn't get any good ones though  |

On that note do you know any good sites where you can get tripods/camera accessories on? |
