Anyone get any good firework photos tonight?

Just wondering if like me anyone else was out trying to take photos of fireworks for the first time?

I decided to go up the hill in Ullapool and give it a go.
I used bulb setting for the first time some turned out ok and some did not. I went for Bulb, manual focus and used my sigman 24-70 lens to try and get a wider view of Ullapool than using my zoom lens. The fireworks in Ullapool did not last that long, if they were on for a bit more i would have changed lens or maybe i should have even setup my other camera. I ended up finding myself holding the shutter down for 10-20 seconds to get some of these.

I have attached a couple of my shots.

I resied these too small as the quality of the originals is really good. Isobel has now got one of these up in her kitchen.
