*** Independence Day Fireworks ***

Wahoo! With my own camera, my own tripod and my own talent! It was great to enjoy these Eagan 150th Anniversary fireworks behind the Eagan Community Center with my family on Sunday evening, July 4th! Happy Independence Day, America!

Wowwww! They're amazing! Fireworks are so fun and you captured them really well! Happy Independence Day to your country. Here in the Philippines we celebrate it as Philippine-American Friendship Day, to commemorate the liberation of the Philippines fromthe Japanese occupation by the American and Filipino forces :) Cheers!

Gratulerer! Jeg så på TV-nyhetene at den amerikanske ambassadøren i Norge og mange hundre norske og amerikanere hadde feiret 4.juli i Frognerparken! Det var mye flagg, rødt hvitt og blått, grilling og underholdning...... sees snart.

Great capture of four fireworks in the same time.
Well done.

Good for you, Leif!
«Louis» wasn't able to get photos of the San Francisco show last night - the Bay was covered with a thick blanket of fog that extended right to «Louis'» balcony. The sound, however, rumbled across the Bay like a young war...

Lovely fireworks photo. I like the way you've "posed" them. Especially the ones in the lower left hand corner. Sorry I haven't been around visiting much of lately. But I will try to do better.
Cheers,

It can be really tricky to capture fireworks but you obviously succeeded!
