It is that time of year again. Fireworks can be found just about everywhere. Fireworks can be challenging for even advanced photographers.

You can even have fun with a simple camera setup and a small backyard fireworks display. Go ahead, take the liberty and create a one of a kind, unique photograph that stands out from amongst the rest. We look forward to seeing your unique submission. 
 
Taking this challenge will make you a better photographer as you compete with fellow photographer friends from around the world.  We are looking for unique images that still bear the basic essentials of composition and technical excellence.
