    The previous day it was in the 90's. A cold front came through and temps were in the low 60's when I took this. In April, that would have been warm!

    I like that multicolored shell, Scott. Did the show rival Symphony in the Stars?

    Dude I am digging the fireworks from outside the DHS gate. I will be there next week and will be sure to set up there one of the nights.

    That's not a moon or a space station.

    Dave (ExploringWDW) and I got Fastpass+ for IllumiNations in May 2014. We set up against the gift shop on the north side of the lagoon (mainly because all of the good spots up front were already taken). As you know, they dim the lights during the fireworks. All the lights, that is, except the one I was standing next to.

    Very cool Michael, glad to see you got something after your run in with the Park Ranger.

    Dennis, I see Mr. Murphy was with you that night! ;)

    John, think of it as a cautionary tale of what can happen when you use a wide-angle lens. ;)

    Very nice shot, Michael. I was afraid I'd get to see those fireworks, but my flight out of DCA was only delayed one hour on July 3. :)

    Very nice Dennis, I may have to shoot from there again in October!

    Thanks, John. There's so little traffic over there, we should put this on the short list of possible locations for the Pixelmania meet.

    Will add this as one of the possible locations, good call on it!
