One of my early attempts at fireworks at Disney. It is uncropped and unretouched, but I still like it. I'm going to try and clean it up a bit and repost.

Great capture, Lschmekel - makes me wish I was in Florida for the holdiays once again!
The only distracting issue I can see is the tilt of the castle - VERY hard to correct for because it is so close to the edge. You might want to try making a selection of just the castle - rotating that selection a pinch - and then filling in the missing bits with your favorite technique of painting or cloning. Then you can rotate the whole picture a fraction to correct the overall lean and do a fractional crop to get rid of the white edges.
Here is a 2 minute attempt just to show you what I mean - you will be able to do much better with a little care and attention. (I actually over-rotated)
Happy holidays!
