Default Happy 4th from Wichita!
Hi everyone. We just got back from the fireworks on the river. Happy birthday America!

This was my first fireworks show I have attended and actually had not only a tripod, but a cable release too. In honor of my nation's birthday, I wanted to share a "shot" or two!
No comments, I'll let the color speak for itself.

Thanks for viewing. Until next time...

Thanks, it was the perfect spot! I do believe it will become one of my haunts during fireworks.
