The fireworks were shot from a different location on Crystal Lake, Barton, Vermont this year and their altitude was low. These photos were shot from my bedroom window, which used to be the perfect spot to shoot them. But this year, you can see the trees, and even power lines, in many shots. It was a disappointment for me. I used a tripod and a remote shutter, f11, ISO 200, manual focus, bulb. I hope you enjoy viewing them as much as I enjoyed taking them.

When Amy & Matt came on the Fourth of July, they brought Sophie (above) and Scout. The dogs loved the swimming in the pond and hunting in the woods for squirrels, chipmunks and mice. Sophie doesn't seem too happy here, but that is just the capture of the camera. She was running and swimming for hours._/\_/\_
I inadvertently took a photo while setting up the software for Sue to use. Then we inadvertently took a photo of both of us while I was explaining it. We're glad we did now. We don't have any other photos of us together.
The Bread & Puppet Theater always has the last spot in Barton's Fourth of July Parade. They always have something significant to say with their puppets. That is why they get their own post in the blog.
