Mountain View / Shoreline fireworks

My second attempt at this stuff. Anyone out at shoreline last night? :thumbsup:
For being a small town the show was very impressive.

Thanks,
Rick

Wow Rick, Very interesting perspective. I like these. Your technicque of using the fireworks light to illuminate the foreground is awesome. I'll have to give it a try next year!!!!
Keep up the great work.

Rick,

Great shots. I like the second one the most with the water and reflection. Where around shoreline was this? I was up in the hills of soquel with haze and distant fireworks - total bust for photo opportunities.

Thanks,
This was taken on the Mountain View golf course about a 1/4 mile north of the Google complex. Image 5 was facing south looking at the Santa Clara show about 2 miles away.

Additionally in image 5... I added an arrow to point out the tiny light that was the Deanza college fireworks show in Cupertino.Atmospheric conditions were superb.
I appreciate the feedback,

Rick

I love number 2, so surreal.

hmm, someone who lives in mountain view...

I am looking at moving there, or at least nearby!

Great shots too!

I'm with Seb, #2 is kick ass! Nice work Rick.

Rick,

The first 4 are excellent, but #2 is outstanding.
