I think a much tighter crop (depending on the zoom available I guess) may have helped this photo. It looks like a great shot of the firework but it's just too small.
Also, I think the title probably didn't help this picture - it's a little difficult to understand your intentions initially. Perhaps something like "Observing a night on the town from a distance" or something more catchy.
I've never tried a shot like this so I don't really appreciate how difficult it is. For the distance involve the shot looks quite good but the detail is too small. I guess the ideal situation would have been several fireworks spread out over a wide area and a very panoramic crop to show the expanse of the city. |

Wow. That's a low score! Looking back, I can see that my composition is too static. But I was really kind of proud of this image! Hadn't done any fireworks pictures that came out before. And for us, a night "on" the town is staying home. This was taken from our front deck, where we watched five different displays going at once. It was very peaceful, but at the same time gave us a chance to observe the bustle of a night on the town without actually being out in it.
Anyone who didn't comment, please feel free to comment now and tell me what I could have done to better convey the mood I was going for. Criticism will only help me improve! Would cropping have helped, or is there just no way to express what I want with this subject?
Thanks! |

| Neat skyline; however, its dividing the picture plane almost in half. I like the dark foreground, so I would probably crop a little of the top off. |

| I can't really tell if thoes are fireworks or not. I'm assuming they are. I'd like it better if there was a more set focal point in the photo. |
