What better way to celebrate the independence of our country than by blowing up a small piece of it.

I know I'm a bit late in posting them up, so I'm including a bunch. I had a nice spot, but not nice enough to get a shot of the lake. Oh well, onto the pics. C&C is always welcome.

    Thanks for the kind words. It is my first successful fireworks display caught on camera.

    I personally enjoyed the simpler catches. the ones with several bursts apparently caught together didn't come off for me.

    In any case several of these I would put in my digital picture frame.
