I have this thing about fireworks. I keep trying to get a good photo of them and it's impossible. You can see my best-ever fireworks photo on my web page. It was taken at the enormous New Year's display, which filled the entire *sky* - there are actually two or three tiny little spots showing up, if you look really closely, which are either fireworks or a bit of dust on the film, or maybe a street light in the distance.

On the night after the last America's Cup race, I was taking photos from a balcony right in front of the fireworks. It was probably the best viewpoint in the entire city. Everybody's photos except mine came out.

This probably has to do with film speeds or lighting or something like that; I know nothing about photography. Does anyone know if there's a simple answer?
