Independence Day (4th July 1776) is commonly associated with barbecues, parades, picnics, games, and other public and private events including fireworks celebrating the history and traditions of the U.S. For those of you who still celebrate the day for its true significance, we share this day in the never dieing spirit of freedom - like these lions. This is my humble tribute from Africa.
And for those of you having bought (illegal) fireworks, be careful, LOL!

Love your lions. Let's hope we don't take away the idnependence of the natural world. Thanks for your good wishes on July 4, Piet. Regarding illegal fireworks, under our unique system of federalism, it depends on where you live. Some localities say its OK, others say its illegal.

Wonderful photography! (Thanks for your comments on my works! MUCH appreciated. I have a digital camera these days for most pics. But, I still get out my 25+ year old Pentax K-1000 every so often. Especially, for my 'double exposure' attempts. Feeble as they are. LOL). My best to you and yours, kind soul. TallPockets.
