Sights and Sounds Seventy-Six

It was July 4th yesterday and Dusti and I decided to get in to the spirit and watch the fireworks at Patriots Point in Mount Pleasant. We rode our bikes armed with our two cameras and two tripods and headed to the old bridge that used to connect Sullivan's Island with Mount Pleasant. We figured this vantage point would be good for a panoramic view of all the firework displays from Folly Beach, Downtown, Mount Pleasant, Sullivan's and Isle of Palms.
I experimented with a couple of panoramic shots  in which I combined several photos together using the photomerge option in Adobe Photoshop. I watched a couple of really good tutorials by Richard Harrington on how to do this. I was pretty pleased with the results. Below are two shots one of the sunset which combined five photos and a firework shot which combined three shots. You can click on the image to see a larger version.





Here are some other firework shots.
