New Years, the 4th of July, a summer evening concert—almost anything is a good excuse for fireworks. But sometimes it seems as if no one is just watching; everyone wants to capture an image with a phone, a camera, an iPad. I’m no exception, but as the pictures below show, catching the display is not so easy…but capturing the capturers (above) can produce an interesting image! These pictures are from July 4th above the Brooklyn Heights Promenade.
