More Shots from Last Week’s 4th

I’ve taken about 220 images in total on the 4th last week. Again, I was extremely disappointed that I didn’t take my tripod and have already prepared for next year by purchasing a Gorillapod Gripster Tripod on eBay. I’m sure I’ll get a lot of use of it before next year. The tripod is pretty cool as it allows you to wrap its flexible legs around any surface providing a steady platform for the camera. Over the weekend, Natalie area heading to Strathmere where I’ll take the new tripod for a spin.

The ladybug ended up on our picnic blanket which we’ve laid out on the lawn while waiting for a few hours for the fireworks to begin. I can’t wait for next year; it’d be amazing if they ended up having them on the Hudson again.
