I processed the RAW file rather than doing a batch job and added a border.
That was the first batch of fireworks and I hadn't changed my settings from the bonfire pictures, I was just luck that it turned out that way.
All of the later pictures were taken with 2-5 second exposures. The camera was mounted on a tripod and I used a remote shutter release to take the pictures. I hit the button when I heard the fireworks launch and then release it after they exploded.
Brill, thanks Colin. I'll try that next time. I don't have a remote release, though. Nowhere for a cable release either.
