Double Chysanthemum (Explored)

To get river edge seats in front of the fireworks barge, you have to arrive about 5 hours before the fireworks begin - well before most of the half a million people show up along the Charles River and other viewing spots. The shells are so large and shot so high that it is difficult to fit everything in with even a 16 mm lens.

We, of course, also had fireworks this week in Canada. It did not even cross my mind that it meets the challenge.

Excellent work on this, not only getting the fireworks but getting to a perfect position to capture them.

Everything about this image is just 'Wow!' Your timing, placement and the thought that you'd need such a wide lens. Good planning really shows in the final result. Let me guess, for others in foreign countries who might not know - this was a Fourth of July celebration, right?

Your July 4th celebrations no doubt. A fine set of captures of these fireworks over the city of Boston. Always good to witness such things as this live, over water. I see your adjacent photos have captured the reflections too. Well done.
