Happy 4th to everyone. Some fireworks from the Village of Lancaster light up the sky at the soon to be replaced CP 429 in Depew.

This photo really was taken on Independence Day. Reminds me a lot of the movie by the same name. Where's Will Smith, Jeff Goldblum, Bill Pullman, and Russel Casse when you need them? This storm front brought some destruction to the west side of Omaha.
By the way, if you zoom in, you can see orange balls on the power lines. They're to help Crop Dusters see the power lines in time to pull up and miss them. Russel Casse would have appreciated that.

The Jackson County Independence Day celebration at Longview Lake near Lee's Summit, Grandview, and Kansas City, Missouri.
Very honored to have won the contest! There were so many fantastic photos. I called this photo Independence because I was standing next to this little girl's father (Bhautik) as I took these photos of her, and he was talking about how she is such an independent soul and he and his wife have spent these last 4 years getting to know this little personality. it resonated with me b/c I'm also very independent and am an only child. I thought the photo perfectly captured the spirit of that conversation and her obvious "independence".
I don't usually gravitate to people/kids in my photos, but I learned an important lesson on this photo walk as she not only added an artistic dimension, but she also added emotion which is why I think this photo turned out so well! Good learning!!!

The great thing about July 4th is that it gives me an excuse to post some more bald eagle photos. Hope you enjoy them too!
Just wishing all my American Contacts/Flickr-ers a wonderful Independence Day! Happy 4th of July!
I thought I'd contribute a video of me playign the USA's Anthem. I'm not very familiar with the anthem so I apologize if there's any wrong notes/timing.
Although, it would have been nice if some of my American contacts would have wished me a happy Canada Day on the 1st! :P!

So what have you guys got planned?
Wishing each and every one of you a wonderful fun filled day with plenty of food, good company and a heart full of love. ♥
God Bless the U.S.A.
If tomorrow all the things were gone
I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again
with just my children and my wife,
I'd thank my lucky stars
to be living here today,
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
and they can't take that away.
I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you
and defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
From the lakes of Minnesota
to the hills of Tennessee,
Across the plains of Texas
from sea to shining sea.
From Detroit down to Houston
and New York to L.A.,
There's pride in every American heart
and it's time we stand and say:
I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you
and defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.

Independence Day -- "Old Glory" -- This week marks the 10th anniversary of taking this pic, so I thought I'd share it one more time. I've used many renditions of it in the past, but this is the original shot.
The flag was painted on the side of a barn in Hanover, PA but was painted over shortly after I took my shots. So very glad I did stop off on the side of the road to do so, as it has proven to be one of my personal favorites.
Happy 4th of July!
On the occasion of India's 75th Independence day. Let the era of accelerated growth, begin.

I like the thought of this mountain just standing strong and free. My feelings as I wandered through the meadows of Mt. Rainier. Be well. Peace and Love.
I'm getting ready to release a new set of images on my website here in a few weeks. Stay tuned!!!! Here's a small preview of what's coming! New Releases Coming Soon!
To develop the park began in 1976, the 200th anniversary year of American independence, to celebrate the relationship between the two freedom-loving countries, Israel and the US. The forest developed and extended an existing woodland planted in the region in the 1950s by new immigrants from the surrounding area and nearby Beit Shemesh, who had arrived soon after the founding of the State of Israel.
Annual local citizen-sponsored celebration of our country's independence. Beautiful night!
