I'm always amazed at the number of people who vehemently hate fireworks because they scare their dog. Are dogs more anxious than they used to be, or did we used to just not give a shit what animals felt?

Those are all great shots.

I've tried taking pictures of fireworks before, and it's not as easy as you might think. Too long of an exposure and you get long flowing streaks that are reminiscent of a weeping willow tree. Too short and you don't get enough light or the trails are just not impressive enough.

I guess after a few tries you figure out the optimal exposure. Timing is critical too. I suppose burst mode would be handy here.

I think people's relationships with their dogs has changed, it wasn't until the 20th century the common folks could ever have a pet. Before that an animal had to earn it's keep. Now they are treated more like children than pets.

I've tried taking pictures of fireworks and failed miserably. This guy obviously has his shit together.
