just saw this and thought it looked interesting. I liked how the sunlight created an interesting shadow.

,,,it means progress, not perfection. Last year I got ticket # 20. This year, I snagged # 2! For a sizeable plate of spit-roast lamb at the Portland Greek Festival.
Some fun with persistence of vision / lightpainting using HTML5 canvas on an iPhone.
Try it yourself – one advice: set the luminosity of the screen to the brightest level possible.
The good thing with fireworks shots is that that they are usually taken against a black background and so it is easy to combine a number of shots to create the particular composition or effect you are looking for.
This image is the result of four exposures, one that captured the range of bright streams of light low down, one that had the sparks at mid level and two for the high level bursts. With all the shots being taken in the same position on trip then it was a case of using lighten mode to stack the layers together.
So while they did not all happen at the same time it is the effect of being there that you are left with.

“Vico has always had dedication and persistence in his duties. He is probably the happiest BLM employee with just some dog food and a piece of hose!” – Dave Stolts, BLM Southern Nevada Supervisory Ranger
Dave Stolts has been Vico’s handler since 2011 when Vico was brought into the BLM’s K9 program. In the six years that he has been on the job, Vico has been involved in assignments all over Nevada and the west. He has been a part of operations on public lands involving high use recreation, such as the Burning Man event, Sand Mountain, and work within the Las Vegas Valley, as well as, work assignments on the international border interdicting narcotic and human smugglers. The most important part of their duties, Stolts said, was the outreach to schools, churches and special events.
“We really feel like the face of the agency at the special events we went to,” Stolts said. “Vico is such a unique police dog and handles being petted and around crowds really well.”
Vico has the personality that many K9s don’t. He has the ability to be calm and collected and when it’s time to work he turns it on and gets the job done. One great memory Stolts has is when they were working near the International border following a group of smugglers. The law enforcement team had hiked in rough terrain all day and had decided they would head back for the night. As the team was leaving the area Vico picked up on his own, the scent of the smugglers. The rest of the team had basically called it a day but Vico never quit. They team was able to follow the smugglers trail and catch them at a highway. They ended up making an arrest. Stolts said he didn’t even signal Vico to work, but he had the sensibility to never stop.
This year Stolts has accepted a supervisory role on the Southern Nevada District. There he will be supervising up to nine Law Enforcement Rangers and felt it was time to retire Vico, Stolts will continue to keep him in his retirement.
