Description

"Police arrested two kids yesterday, one was drinking battery acid, the other was eating fireworks. They charged one and let the other one off." --Tommy Cooper

I'm interrupting our regularly scheduled series to post a photo or two of the fireworks from my New Year's Eve 2006. Twice a year, some of my neighbors spend vast amounts of money on things that literally go up in smoke. Still, they do it with a bang. With the lake present, it is doubly fun to watch. ----- Thank you for your permafrost comments on my last upload, Deep Ice V. I hope everyone is having a whiz-bang of a 2006 so far!

Like Eric said, fire works over the water does not get much better, and he is right. Thank you for sharing your new year experience with us.

Sweeeeeeeeeet!!!! Capturing one is cool...but even the reflections...that make it, as P would have said...WICKED!!! I never understood how people can "burn" that much money on something that only lasts for a few seconds....then again, nobody i know could ever understand why i would spend so much money on a new camera bla bla bla. Wonderful capture K. Have a smashing day!!! #:O) MAS4eva!!!!

Wow - love the reflections! What an amazing shot! The shutter speed is perfect to catch the burst, yet stop the action. A marvelous photo!

Excellent compo shooting this over a lake, brilliant idea Kort. Because our island is so small, a permit is required to purchase fireworks, then it's not the big noise makers, and aerials are banned completely....the smoke that produced hangs heavy on the island for quite awhile...people who are asthmatic really suffer during this holiday...but it's once a year and we do it up right! Aloha!

Fireworks and then again in reflection, brilliant. Not a fan of frames, but this one really works.
