Yes, some of my friends may recognize those trees. This was taken from my front deck where the best seat in the town for fireworks exists...except for the trees..but it's better than battling the traffic I suppose. I didn't know they were scheduled for tonight, so this is a quick-set-up-the-tripod-and-hope-for-the-best shot. My first ever decent fireworks pic. (note: They were about a mile away)

Gosh I'm the first to be able to comment! I actually really like the trees, they give the shot so much more than just 'fireworks' in the sky! They frame it in such a special lovely way!! The slight purple colour is totally lovely with the orange. For a first ever good fireworks picture, you did sure do this well, my friend! I like it very very much..Verena

*You will have noticed that I haven't been commenting as much on your fine images!..This is because of the pains in my hands!..the constant use of the keyboard, makes this difficult..so, my dear friends..I can only apologise to you all in advance!*

looks like the display is perfectly positioned for a fantastic view from that deck PJ! the sky is all lit up! well done in capturing these fireworks - it is a lot harder than most of us think, until we try it ourselves!

Looks great PJ! Perfectly framed between the trees also! How nice to have a great seat for the show on your own deck! Nicely done! C):-)

THE CAMERA'S ONLY JOB is to get out of the way of making photographs. It's entirely an artist's eye, patience, and skill that makes an image. ~Ken Rockwell VISIT MY GALLERY
This is fabulous PJ! A mile away - they must have been BIG works goin' on! Very very nice and what a great seat you have for them. Happy 4th to you and yours! ~Mary~

Best wide-angle lens? Two steps backward. Look for the 'ah-ha'.

I really enjoy hearing from my caedes friends.
Well, you are right. It isn't worth the effort of climbing into the car and then trying to find a parking place to see the fireworks, when you can see them so well right from your own yard. I love the orange afterglow of the ones you caught here and the little bit of purple that you have also used as a border really compliments this so beautifully against the black. Wonderfully done, PJ!

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

cool capture of this wonderful explosion of beauty, I can feel the thunder and the music in my ears...cant wait to feel this again..
