Color and Chaos
The 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
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
When it comes to fireworks, my favorites are the big ones – the huge bursts of color that fill the sky. This is a big red one from the July 4th celebration at Kewaunee, WI. 2014. A few days ago, I posted another full-sky burst: Burst of Blue. To see even more fireworks shots, click on the “Fireworks” category in the left-hand margin of this page.

Party Like It’s 1776
The sky was a wild and messy at times – all those colors and lines and squiggles. It was an Independence Day celebration over the Kewaunee, WI harbor. July 4th, 2014

Burst of Blue
I 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
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.
Blue Spectacular
A burst of red, white and blue filled the sky and reflected in the harbor at Kewaunee, Wisconsin during their 2013 Trout Festival.
Kewaunee always puts on a great fireworks display for their Trout Fest.

Accents of Blue
This image stuck me as beautifully graceful and unusual. It is a fireworks burst from the show at Kewaunee, Wisconsin’s annual Trout Festival. One of many fireworks shots I captured that evening.

Lighting Up the Harbor
Fireworks, 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.
