Color and Chaos

Fireworks, 4th of July, Independence Day, Kewaunee, WIThe rockets red glare and the bombs bursting in air gave proof through the night that the spirit of Independence Day was alive and well in Kewaunee, WI.  This well attended fireworks show is part of Kewaunee’s annual celebration.

The weather was wonderful for enjoying an evening with friends on the shore of Lake Michigan.  For the photographer in me, I could have used a bit more of a breeze at our backs.  That would have cleared the smoke away better, giving us an unobstructed view of the color and chaos.

Beachside Spectacular

Fireworks, Spectators, Kewaunee, WI, July 4th, 4th of July, Beach
One of the best vantage points for the 4th of July fireworks display in Kewaunee, Wisconsin is a blanket or comfortable chair on the beach. Kewaunee is located on the western shore of Lake Michigan.

I’ve photographed the fireworks in Kewaunee many times, but I usually do so from a spot on the harbor. I like capturing the reflection of the firework’s colors on the water’s surface. (Check some of the previous Kewaunee fireworks posts on this site HERE) This year, I decided to try a different location, joining the spectators on the beach.

The fireworks are discharged from the pier that stretches out into the lake.

Red Sky at Night

Burst of Blue

4th of July, Fireworks, Blue, Reflection, Kewaunee, WI, 2014I made sure to make it to the harbor of Kewaunee, WI for their 4th of July fireworks. This is one of the large bursts I was able to capture.

When shooting local fireworks, I like to be close to the water because I think the reflection adds a lot of interest to the image.

In the foreground, to the left, you can see one of several pontoon boats in the harbor that offered a front row seat to spectators.  They seem a bit blurry because this photo took several seconds to catch the full burst and the boat was moving.

Rocket’s Red Glare

Red, Fireworks, July 4th, Water, Reflection

I’m blessed to live in an area where local firework’s displays are launched near water. I always position myself close to the water so I can include the colorful reflections from the bright lights in the sky in my images. This is a perfect example.

The bright red from this fireworks burst creates a stunning reflection in the Kewaunee, WI harbor. This was part of their annual Trout Festival celebration.

Take a look at the larger version to see more detail in the reflection – just click the photo.

Lighting Up the Harbor

Fireworks, Harbor, Kewaunee, Full Moon, Moon, ReflectionFireworks, on the opening night of the annual Trout Festival, lit up the sky and harbor of Kewaunee, WI.  The full moon offered it’s own amazing illumination and reflection.

Those familiar with the Kewaunee harbor will recognize the historic tug, Ludington, on the right side of the photo.  The little bright dot beyond the point where the fireworks were launched is the light of Kewaunee’s lighthouse.  On the left side is the Coast Guard station. The orange streak reflecting on the water (near the middle of the channel) is from the flashing lights of the Coast Guard boat – positioned to keep boats clear of the fireworks launch area.
