I have one piece of advice about going to see fireworks shows…
Don’t go see the big ones…
The crowds are too big…
Parking sucks, and getting our afterwards is a pain…
And you have to drive for miles on the way home surrounded by drunk people who are also driving…
Go to see the small shows at your local high school…
You support your local school system…
And I will tell you something else…
Medium-sized fireworks going off right over your head are at least as exciting as big ones going off farther away…
I am not sure why, but some of these pictures came out really cool…
They are kind of artistic…
I think is has something to do with the zoom on my cheap camera…
But I like it.
Pouring My Art Out 
We just stay at home and watch the neighbors shoot off theirs. They like to compete with each other each year. It is a blast haha
We aren’t supposed to do that in this state
Those are great shots!
I’m too old to go to the Big ones. When I was in my 20’s I lived on Capitol Hill and could walk down to see DC’s fireworks and the concert they always have at the Capitol. But drive? No way!
I hate crowds.
love the effects, some look like a flock of neon birds
Some of them I took on the third of July at the local high school, some on the fourth from a friends house. On the fourth I was zooming in a lot because we were far away… and I might have been a little drunk… I think that explains the squiggly ones.
It works, trouble with some digital photography, we edit too much, best to snap and see what comes out
That’s what I do.
Cool Art. (you can take that either way.)
Thanks… I will
