Happy 4th of July! #WW

Tuesday, July 3, 2012 by Lolli 14 Comments

While I was in Philadelphia this weekend, I was able to see some of the most incredible fireworks ever (and we had amazing “seats”)! Philly fireworks blew my socks off, and I had a blast snapping pictures for the entire fireworks show.

One of my favorite things to do during fireworks displays is leaving the shutter of my camera open for a full second and “painting” with the lights. I love the laser light show look of the photos.

    All of the fireworks in our area have been canceled. It’s kind of sad for the rest of the family (I don’t feel like I’m missing out since I saw incredible fireworks on Saturday…).

    Those are stunning Lolli!!! Oh my gosh! I need you to seriously tutor me in camera techniques. (although maybe i’d have to use a real camera instead of my iphone or even my little point and shoot). :)
