fireworks

I went with Matt, Jessica, Damo, and Omri to see the 4th of July fireworks display at The American Village in Montevallo, Alabama. Great food, great fireworks, fun with family!
I had not been to a fireworks display in many years, and had never tried to photograph them before, so I was really excited! I spent the day researching photography blogs and youtube for advice on settings for photographing fireworks; I'm such a geek!
The other photos from the day are on my Flickr site.

Babs,

This image is striking and beautiful. I love that you can see the different sparks. AWESOME!

I love fireworks, but they do scare the crap ouf of me.
Hugs!

Thanks Dee - that means so much coming from you, my awesome friend and photographer!! I was so excited to try my hand at shooting firework photos!
(Fireworks SHOULD scare the crap out of us - they are so dangerous!! You KNOW how I feel about home fireworks of any kind!!)
