Not bad! Is it your first time shooting fireworks?

In general I can see that the exposure is just a touch too long. The first picture shows that in the over exposed centre of the explosion. The last one shows that via the streaks that seem to be quite droopy.

It might also help if you can try your hand at using the dodge and burn functions of various photo editing tools to make sure portions of your shots turn out better exposed.
