First attempt at composite-shot in two different locations in different years.
Used Photoshop Elements 13

The fireworks look great and I applaud your efforts. I don't have the skills to attempt to create composite images. To me the color differences between the shots are not homogenous although both are excellent captures. Of course, I may be viewing this from the wrong perspective.🤔

Tried learning this watching YouTube-gives you the general idea—took quite a while to get this far.

It's way more than I can do. I have trouble keeping up with basic post processing. You have great images to work with. I'm sure you will get the results you desire.

Thanks-at 75 yrs old with macular degeneration it’s a challenge.

Well, you certainly had some fun putting such things together!
Interesting result. And since it is fireworks, you can make it be any arrangement you want. And this one is good.
Angky.

Thanks-first obstacle was setting the background to black. None of the videos mentioned that-guess the assumed that was a given
