My second July 4th here in the US. Well we missed more than half of it to start with, we were still driving to the waterfront when the fireworks started. But then again, it was good while it lasted. But sadly I couldn't make good use of my Canon. Half the time I was trying to find the "fireworks" scene mode and rest of the time coping with learning to use it and then again there was the maybe I should look and not take pictures or take video and not pictures. Not at all impressed with what I could snap but I like this one particular picture, caught it when it had just started cracking up and so the sparks are dense and more colorful. And the "fireworks" mode does help make the picture less grainy.
