She was being annoying the night of the fireworks. She would pace on the back porch making the whole structure shake. She ended up inside the house real quick! The only thing I forgot about this photo is to adjust the aperture. I only adjusted the shutter speed. I might've had better results had I used a more appropriate aperture. Oh well, next time!

Also take them without the dog running around, mine always wrecked my long exposures, sniffing the camera or running into the tripod lol. But a more serious tip, I always tried to get a point of interest in the photo, like a building or person, otherwise they start looking like just green blobs. This one is really great though, looks like you've got the right exposure! Great job.
