This 4th of July, I tried something different, the way I did was setup shutter speed to 30 seconds. Before start capturing, I put my hand in front of the lens and whenever I felt that the shot is nice, just moved my hand off the lens and put it back after a few seconds. I tried to capture couple of fireworks shot in one 30 seconds duration
Here you can see one of the shot!
Entire Fireworks
I hope you will like it!

Next time, try it with a piece of black, matte fabric.
Works even better :-) |

That technique works good. I have done something similar for both fireworks and for lightning shots at night, covering the lens after the lightning stroke.
I did something different this year too. I tried shooting 8 sec exposures, and panning the camera left 4 sec, then right 4 sec during the exposure. Here's one done that way.
The first shot in your gallery looks like an accidental ground burst, a shot that didn't get off the ground when they launched it.
