Well, when the time came, I have to admit I didn't use a one of them.
I just braced my camera against a lamppost and hoped for the best (though I did have the flash turned off -- it doesn't help in situations like this):
July 4th Fireworks in Leesburg
Fireworks Fountain on the Patio
Anyway, originally, I wanted to make this an entry about comparing a few free programs for editing your digital photos, but it's kind of hard to really tell the difference with fireworks photos (at least with mine), so I will have to use some other photos as examples in a later post.
Thanks -- Joe

I have no idea why on my camera if I leave the flash off it wont take on fireworks but on it does. I had to zoom in for the fireworks that were two miles away but I got some awesome pics
Great fireworks Joe. Hey, gotta question. When I go to do a background in my html the link to my ftp space won't stay highlighted and underlined to make a connection to my ftp space. Can you fix this for me so I can do backgrounds again, pretty please???? Will you email me any possible answers to my screen name? Thanks Joe. Hugs,
Lisa
PhotoStudio 2000 (free with my scanner years ago) and MS Office Picture Manager did a fine job with mine. I used the "fireworks" setting, no tripod, on my Nikon digital. Half my photos were blank, but I was lucky to get anything decent at all.- Karen

The best part about Joe's fountain photo method is that you can then turn the camera at yourself for the imminent "I lit my own hair on fire" photo.
Hi Lisa -- Since your Journal is private, I can't really see what you're referring to. If you're using CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) to embed backgrounds in your Journal entries, you may be overriding the link styles. Are the links still clickable (and just not look clickable), or are they not clickable at all? If that's the case, you may need to fiddle with the CSS, or explicitly define a link style in your CSS.
Thanks -- Joe (posted & mailed)
