Thanks! I took about 400 shots, this was the one that really seemed to come out the best, will try to have more up this weekend!

Now that is what I picture when I think fireworks!
Would've loved to go but decided against fighting the crowds.

Added a few more, similar but different looks from Tuesday, enjoy! Will see if I can get a few more edited down this weekend. --Sam

Awesome capture!! Where was this taken?
Kadath (72 months ago | reply)
At the "Kaboom" Celebration in Red Bank, NJ. They run in the hundreds of thousands of dollars and are set off by the Grucci Brothers, who are one of the biggest fireworks companies. They are awesome every year.

The best Red White and Blue of 2009, so far, for me:

"It's not a new dinosaur, but I'll take it!"
I originally chose my University based on the fact that they have an excellent archaeology and paleontology department, and that I took exactly one semester in that discipline before deciding that, as much as I love dinosaurs, that career path was not for me. My dreams of making a find into the Smithsonian were dashed! Today however the dream came back just a little bit, in a way I never expected...
Smithsonian Magazine has chosen one of my best shots as their picture of the week! You can see the write-up here:

Ironically, the article it accompanies is about how bad Fireworks are for the environment =)

This shot of Red White and Blue fireworks might be my fave this year:

Congratulations on receiving more than 10,000 views, that's quite impressive! Now that you've reached this milestone, you might want to consider graduating this photograph from the 'Views: 5000' group to the 'Views: 10000' group, which can be found here: www.flickr.com/groups/views10000/

Once again, congratulations and hopefully your photos will receive many more views in the future!

Added to the group, thanks for the invite!

Cool up to 15k views. Thanks everyone for the kind words once again! If you find this picture (It's my most popular one!) would you be kind enough to post how you found it? Most are coming via googling for Red White and Blue Fireworks but I see some really cool alternative traffic to it from time to time too.
