It’s Independence Day. Fireworks are what we do. This is from the North Little Rock side of the Arkansas River, looking across to Little Rock.

We went to the river with a couple of friends, specifically to shoot fireworks photos. I got my tripod set up, attached the shutter release, got ready to take some test shots and check my settings and … I had run out the door without taking a battery off the charger and putting it in my camera! So, I was stuck with using my smartphone. 😦
