**David singing Martina McBride's "Independence Day"... **
Let Freedom ring
Let the white dove sing
Let the whole world know that today
Is a Day of reckoning
Let the weak be strong
Let the right be wrong
Roll the stone away
Let the guilty pay
It's Independence Day
Here are some pictures from my experience last night during the Fourth of July fireworks. The little baby you sometimes see over on the right hand side is my great niece Chloe. She is about a year old. She is the daughter of my niece Christy. She wasn't the least bit scared by the fireworks. She loved them. She sat there and watched them, and eventually she even seemed a bit bored as the bright flashes and deafening booms filled the Indy skies. It was really cute!! :-* :)
I do not know the camera settings. I took Jess' suggestions and shot the fireworks using my camera's video mode. Thanks for the suggestion Jess! :)

We were all wondering how Chloe would react to the fireworks. My nephew shot some smaller fireworks off Dad's deck earlier and she seemed to like it. And she wasn't bothered at all by the great big boomers. She clapped and laughed, and eventually grew bored of the whole thing. Perhaps it is because she was sitting in the safety of her Uncle David's lap, and at other times in her Mommy's lap, but I think she really liked it. She was soaking up the whole experience.
I was terrified of those fireworks when I was young. We used to go over to Butler University and watch them. They scared the SHEEIT out of me! Chloe is much braver than I was! :D

I love how you shot your pictures in a series. It feels a bit as if we are watching the storm as it descends on Sydney. Thanks for posting the pictures buddy! :D

Glad you like my pics, David. The storm swept across the city at great speed and before we knew it, it was gone, off out to sea. If there was any damage, it was minimal. Certainly, it didn't make the evening news. I love your pics of Chloe watching the fireworks. So cute. :)
