Shanty Days Fireworks
One of the charming aspects of small town life is the annual (fill-in-the-blank) festival. Every community commemorates and celebrates some aspect of its heritage or culture. In the case of Algoma, WI it’s “Shanty Days.” The finale of every Shanty Days festival is the Sunday night fireworks display.
The launch site is at the Algoma harbor. I set up my camera on the beach, near the water’s edge. Those who are familiar with Algoma’s harbor will recognize the tiny red light near the right edge of this photo as the famous pier light.
I snapped several interesting images from this show. I’ll be posting more, including one that reminds me of a green spider on its web and one of the most unusual fireworks effects I’ve seen, so check back soon.
