4th July - Fireworks Photos

Mark Goldstein | PhotographyBLOG | July 4, 2007 | 7 Comments |

Fireworks by supermarvin76It’s July 4th today, which means that it’s Independence Day if you live in the USA, and also the opportunity to see a great fireworks display. According to Wikipedia, “Fireworks have been associated with the Fourth of July since 1777”. If you are planning to go out and take a few photos of the celebrations, then you may want to take a look at our Photographing Fireworks article, which has links to some great online resources.

Fireworks are overrated. In the last two years i've not seen a single original photograph of fireworks. I'd love to see something original with fireworks, maybe a journalistic style, while somebody gets beaten on the background smile)) lol smile) ok, you got the point smile

Hi Mark - considering my own article on Friday reminded you to remind everyone about your earlier article the least you could have done was add my article to the list on yours wink;

I agree with you in a way Oleg - one great fireworks shot doesn't look too different from the next. I prefer shots that show the people who are watching etc.

Ian - I will add your article now, in time for next year!

Ian,

I personally would be more interested in a link to the second part of your E-410 review.
Is it coming?
