Window light Roses

I was noticing how the window light was shining on my wife's valentines day roses.  Grabbed the camera and played with the shot a bit.  I like the composition of this one, even if the roses seem to be wilting a bit.

4th Fireworks

Flower of the 4th

Star Power

These shots were taken during this year's fireworks display. I used the 70-210mm lens zoomed in quite a bit to take these shots. My tripod was my friend during this shoot and it made for some spectacular affects behind the lens. I left the shutter open for 2 seconds for these shots allowing enough time to capture all of the aspects of the fireworks.
