I have been going to Wolfeboro (N.H.) fireworks, both in July & on New Year’s Eve, for decades — only missing a handful, at that.
Yesterday’s fireworks, the 1st post-COVID, was, I am SURE, the BEST display we have been treated to in many years — if not the very BEST (in modern times).
It was done from a barge moored on the Bay — as opposed to from the ‘bottom’ playing field at Brewster. Having the fireworks go off over water made a difference. [We in Alton (N.H.) are used to this.] Makes a difference as you can see from some of the pictures above. I tried to get as many showing the water, the boats & the reflections. [I have practice from Alton.]
I am sure they upped the budget for this firework show. More variety & that was noticed & appreciated. The show lasted about 28-minutes — a few minutes longer than usual.
It was good. Very good.
THANK YOU, Wolfeboro. You did us PROUD.
I took close to 280 photos — all with my phone. (See below) I didn’t bother to take either one of my two cameras. I took a tripod BUT ended up not using it. There were two ladies taking pictures with pukha cameras. At the end we compared pictures. They conceded that they might have been better off using MY phone. SMILE.
I whittled my cache from 280 down to 250. I need to weed out some more. But, here is a montage of those 250 pictures.
