I have been playing in CS5 Extended (a trial edition while I decide whether or not I want to upgrade right now) and have done some work with the stacked layers ability. Essentially it allows you to stack your photos and then one way of displaying them is to multiply them on top of each other. It works brilliantly for fireworks and I am pretty happy with how the photos from Canada Day came out.
Canada Day Fireworks shot from the Museum of Civilization in Gatineau, Quebec overlooking the Ottawa River and downtown Ottawa in Ontario.

We started at Nepean Point overlooking the Ottawa River and then walked down to the National Art Gallery and then towards the War Monument. It was a very cold, windy night so our equipment really got a hard test. Unfortunately some people learned that their cameras do not like the cold, one camera even shutdown on its owner. Fortunately for me though, my equipment did beautifully during its harsh test.
These are the two photos I submitted. I have uploaded them to Flickr as well so you can check them out there too.
This is the Museum of Civilization as seen from the Ottawa side of the river (Parliament Hill to be precise). I used to go to this museum every year with school but now that I live in Ottawa, and am older, I find I don't go here nearly as often as the exhibits don't change that often and the fun ones are really only fun once in a while. It is still a very good museum.© Blogger templates Romantico by Ourblogtemplates.com 2008
