I am not sure what happened to last week. It was a blur. Lots of coming and goings and then the grandson came in town. Then we went on a road trip and got these lovely shots.
We went to our cabin for the 4th of July weekend. They usually have a huge fireworks display in the town center. As we sat waiting for the show to start the weather started to get a little pesky. Not that I mind rain, because I LOVE rain.... (when you live in the desert for 30 years you enjoy the rain). Anyway, the show started early and I started taking the pictures with my tripod. I had the camera in Manual and the ISO low around 200. I also had the aperature at F/5.6 and my shutter speed at 8. As I was taking the picture, God showed us His handiwork at the same time the firework went off! I was in shock! The entire sky lit up. It started to rain so I could only get a few more pictures before I had to put my camera away and get in the back seat of the car because I was COLD!!!
Still counting the gifts of gratitude......
