Red White & Blue Ash Fireworks

My 4th of July celebrations included attending a friend’s party and walking from her house to a fireworks‘ display called Red White & Blue Ash Fireworks!  It’s located in Blue Ash, Ohio, which is a suburb of Cincinnati and there were over 100,000 people there!  Midnight Special and Cheap Trick were the bands playing and the Rozzi Fireworks were spectacular!  I took my tripod to capture the fireworks.  It was my first time and I had my settings on 8 seconds at 8 F-Stop.  In Lightroom 5, I edited some of the smoke out by increasing my black and contrast.
