Jakov, the image of reply 9 is incredible, amazing work!. Are these images composed of several exposures?

What is the celebration about?

Dear Ramon, they are all single images.

I was thinking of making a multiple exposure but the fireworks were so strong that I didn't do it in the end fearing that they would turn out to messy. I started taking photos @ f/5.6; ISO 100; 4 seconds, but as the shooting went on I continuously reduced the shutter speed that ended up in the end at 1.3 seconds. The reason why I reduced the shutter speed and not closed the lens was I simply wanted to get as many images as possible, and at 1.3 seconds I even turned of the Long Exposure NR to save more time

Thanks, Jakov

Dear Armando,

To tell you truth I haven't got a clue.
Every year for two weekends there are firework displays on the beach in The Hague.
The fireworks are presented to the masses by different countries. I had the pleasure to enjoy the fireworks from Italy and The Netherlands. (China, Spain and another four countries have/had their own sets).

Thanks, Jakov
