Cool picture.

Did you have your camera setup on a tripod or something? The time I tried to take pictures of fireworks and the lights at Niagara Falls the only ones that came out worth a shite was when I set my camera up on a brick fence post. Because of the long exposure time.

Thanks.
Yes I had a tripod. Its nearly impossible to take any long exposures without one and not have blurry images.
I also set my camera on bulb mode and used a remote shutter release to avoid touching the camera and for timing purposes.

Thanks Isabelle. I've had some of my landscape shots blown up to hang in my house, but I once sent a night image to the photo lab I use for prints, and it came back too dark, which leaves me hesitant to do this one. And since it's a composite, there might be artifacts that show up on the final print.
Unless your computer monitor is properly calibrated, it's hard to get the finished product to appear as it does on a monitor, and it's expensive to fail.

Many thanks Who Dat.
My dream is to retire in a few years to the scenic west and make some side cash off of landscape prints.
