I used to be really scared of fireworks as a kid. I may have totally made this up, but I remember a small firework landing very close to me while I was watching a fireworks display from a bridge in Charleston when I was little—I watched the rest of the show from the car. Now, I mostly appreciate how beautiful they are. This photo is actually a compilation of about fifty photos of fireworks. So beautiful! Hope everyone is having a wonderful day!
