Light painting & Fireworks

This time of year often seems to bring the long exposure photos to light!

A few weeks ago I was shooting with some local photographers using some DIY lights which created some rather good results;

These were all shot on my old 300D with a 50mm mk2. Since then I've got a 7D mk2 so here's a bonus fireworks shot from that!

Thanks. That 3rd shot was using a loose spiral of blue el wire in a vertical motion around the subject for about 20-30 seconds.
