Fireworks

I didn't get down to the waterfall today, I have one more chance this month and two next month, so I should be able to do it. I did go out and take some shots of the fireworks from my back yard.

Geographical note, I was 1 kilometre (.60) miles) from the ball game in yesterday's photo.

The fireworks (these photos anyway) are held in the river valley which is 5.7 km away from my place and down quite a bit (I don't know how deep the river valley is - sorry).

The display started at 23.00 hrs and this first photo is only to show how light it still is outside.


This shot shows what a narrow view I had.

I still don't have a tripod, but the chain link fence was sort of a help.

By this time, I was getting the hang of using the fence to keep the camera steady....

and I was getting eaten alive by mosquitoes.

I didn't stick around for the grande finale, I have been feeling crappy all day and want to get this posted and to bed. I think I have had too much heat for this year. Today was cooler, but not by much and my suite is still recording 27 C.

I hope everyone has a good Wednesday.
