Fred May of Boom Boom Pyrotechnics put on the main public display on Saturday. True to the theme of the event (and the name of the company), there was a HUGE number of salutes. Add to that the huge gas ground bombs, and it was a fantastic display.

Note - the problem I had with taking pictures was that I needed a wider lens. At 28mm, it was still too narrow. Next year? Maybe. It's also a testament that the stuff has gotten bigger - much bigger.

Great show, Fred!
