This lone photograph, ladies and gentlemen, is the first (or the last in order of posting) of the 4th of July fireworks photos I'll be posting this year. I had over 250 photos and I narrowed it down through a few rounds to these 49 photos. Not all of them are great but there is something about each of them that I like very much. Many of them have been quickly cropped/zoomed but none of them have been digitally altered in any way and, except for things that may have been cropped out of the picture they are all posted here exactly as they were when they came screaming out of the camera and into my desktop at home. Each of these pictures was taken by either myself or my wife. Each is our property and is not to be used anywhere else for any reason without permission (like saying that would stop anyone from stealing them). The photos were taken over 3 different nights in Dayton, Centerville, and Greenville Ohio. I have temporarily changed the page background color so that you can actually see the edges of the photos (black on black... not easy to tell. black on very dark grey... slightly better.) and you can glide on down to the end for a handy little slideshow.
