Exellent work and nice colorful reflections in the water !

I knew that you'd get something good on the 4th =:-)

Great composition with the boats, reflections, golf course. These other elements put the fireworks into perspective. My future fireworks shots will be far enough away so that only 1/3 to 1/4 of the picture is the full firework (from launch to explosion). Great job.
