Default Canada Day
I will probably have some firework shots up soon but I liked this shot because of where the moon was. The thing is that I am thinking it might be boring? What can I do to make it better? Or is it good as it is? Thanks

SS. 1/1250
F 10
ISO 800 (GRR! Forgot to check that AGAIN *slaps self on hand.........)

Hope you had a great Canada Day Misty! I love this photo, you're right, the moon just behind the flag is really cool! If you have Photoshop you could maybe play with the colors (overlay) or desaturate the background so that the flag really pops. Whatever you decide its a great photo just as it is can't wait to see some fireworks pics. Kimi
