He mentioned he learned a lot. I commented that the shutter speeds and all gave me a headache. :) It is one of the reasons I've put off trying to capture fireworks. I'm a much better point and shoot girl.! He did a great job and your photo stats give me an idea of what he did. <br />The third one is my favorite!!!!<br />It's hot here too - keep cool as best you can.Carlettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11178161514195582965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915113069723845995.post-48796676623130864482010-07-06T21:51:23.573-05:002010-07-06T21:51:23.573-05:00Great pics!

My sisters and I go back by our family home in Roanoke every October. It still looks the same: a big square red brick with a wraparound porch. The only thing that's changed is the trees are really tall. Well, they were pretty tall back in the day. I always want to walk up on the porch and plop down with a book and wait for Jerry the Popsicle Man to come clanging down the street. Ah, sweet memories.<br /><br />Best,<br />BonnieFrom the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00789641912016566894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915113069723845995.post-18479509679101449252010-07-06T13:09:04.947-05:002010-07-06T13:09:04.947-05:00Nice job!
