Red, White & You 2013

A sure sign that your kids lead interesting lives -- they turn down the chance to go see fireworks.  Seriously, both Taryn and Zak were "meh" at the thought.  When I was their age, going to see fireworks was a big deal.

A sure sign that you're getting old -- starting sentences with "when I was their age."

Anyway, just because they didn't want to go didn't mean I couldn't.  Through my friends in the Denver Photo Hikers I'd gotten some great tips on how to best to shoot fireworks from the Capital Photography Center and Illuminate Workshops.  I put them to the test at Foothills' Red, White & You event at Clement Park last night.  And I'm not disappointed in the results!



This face looked much less sinister in real-time.







Happy birthday, America!

    Thanks! Only one Friendly's stop so far, which is nowhere near as many as I'd expected. :)
