I photographed the annual Edmonds Fourth of July fireworks show from the back deck of my aunt's house in Emerald Hills. Since I only photograph fireworks once a year, I am pretty much flying by the seat of my pants.
Due to the late sunset (9:11pm, PDT) at our far northern latitude, the fireworks show did not begin until shortly after 10pm. Even then, there was still a fair amount of color in the sky. The two bright "stars" in the middle of the photo are the planets Venus (left) and Jupiter (right).
