This is the first year since returning to Washington in 2006 that we've gone to see the fireworks display; usually it's easier to watch on TV. We managed to find a remote corner on the Capitol grounds with a straight (but distant) shot to the show. I had a tough time even remembering how to get decent fireworks shots, and my results weren't as good as I had hoped. So many thanks to William Barletta for salvaging amd re-processing these images for me.
