We spent the July 4th holiday in NJ but made sure that we got home in time for the Macy’s fireworks show in the Hudson River. We were really excited that they decided to hold the fireworks on the west side again, because we knew we would have a great view from our apartment. Last year we went up to the roof to watch the fireworks, but it was really crowded and hard to see because the fireworks were actually below us.<\/p>\n
We were smarter this year and stayed in our apartment, with the air conditioner on, and watched the spectacular show from our bedroom window. This year the fireworks were at eye level, and we were so close to them that the “booms” rattled our windows! Josh had the SLR set up on a tripod and managed to take some really neat photos, as shown below:<\/p>\n
