I had my phone mounted on my camera hotshoe - here's the pairs static run. This was easily the loudest thing I've ever experienced, the noise and the vibrations were unbelievable. You can see it goes a bit shaky when the afterburner kicks in!

Great set, love the angle on number 3, and your clever use of telephoto foreshortening in #5 is the most successful result I've yet seen of the distant fireworks

Thanks Pringles. The two you mention are the ones I was most pleased with.

Nicely done mush, love the shadow on the last one!
