Geso Fireworks

Thanks to everyone who looked & commented on the fireworks. So glad you enjoyed them. They were almost canceled this year for lack of funds. A local business man put up 15 grand and made a lot of people happy. I think it worked out to $1000.00 a minute. The campaign to raise money for next year

Well, I tend to shoot fireworks at 2-8 seconds, and most of the time, that would blow out the moon, no matter what aperture setting used. On Tue, Jul 17, 2012 at 2:56 AM, Larry Colen wrote: > > On Jul 16, 2012, at 6:15 PM, David Parsons wrote: > >> They are a bit like junk food, but I still enjoy
