Happy Fourth of July!

  • by

Yesterday  Tracy and I took nearly a three mile walked around my brother’s neighborhood in Hyde Park, NY. It was drizzling most of the way and since I didn’t think I had any great fireworks photos to post, I was looking for Fourth of July decorations for today’s post. First I saw this:

July4bunting

I love the way the bunting was reflected in the puddle. Then we came upon this:

July4Lawn

The little doggie ornament is holding a flag as well.

Then last night I uploaded photos from my point and shoot (above) and my photos from my SLR from Saturday night’s fireworks. In frustration, I had pointed my camera to the sky and took about 20 photos with my remote, not expecting anything. Imagine my surprise when I saw these:

Fireworks6

Fireworks8

Edited to add: I’m submitting this one to Sweet Shot Tuesday:

Just four of ten decent photos of the fireworks. What a pleasant discovery! If you’re in the U.S. have a wonderful holiday! My brother and Tracy are off to golf this morning, and I’ll be hanging out with Stephanie. There’s a cookout planned for tonight. Early tomorrow morning, we’ll be headed home.

  1. What great fireworks photos. We’re off to a BBQ later today and then down to the beach to set off fireworks. May or may not make it to the parade.

  2. Lovely photos! Great job, I haven’t gotten any this good before. Happy 4th of July to you! Have a wonderful day, it’s been nice to connect again! Hope you are feeling well.

  3. You got great photos of the fireworks! Which camera worked for you? Our town does fireworks the Sunday after July 4th so we have to wait. And not sure if we’ll be going this year or not with the kids’ work schedules.
