a bouquet for you
© 2009 Steve Kelley
View of Macy's Fourth of July fireworks show from Jersey City, New Jersey looking North up the Hudson River with Hoboken on the left and New York City (NYC) on the right. The George Washington Bridge is on the horizon.
HDR from a single RAW with Photomatix 3.1 and CS3
For all who have asked: This is a single 3 second exposure at f11 and 125 iso. This is a specialty fireworks that has been shot the last few years at the Macy's show which results in multiple mini-bursts of fireworks all at once.
Please view on black and large:

Nice! I have to send this to my sister, because I remember saying "oooo!", but she looked away at that very moment, and by the time she looked back and said "What?", it was gone! And, funny enough, my grandmother said, "Oo! A bouquet!" LOL
tattoodjj....those bursts were pretty much all at once!
