Lighting Up the evening sky.
This is my day 14 contribution to Becky’s January Squares on the theme of Up.
Canada Day fireworks lighting Up the evening sky over Bluewater Park on the South Bruce Peninsula, Ontario from across Colpoy’s Bay.

Wonderful. There’s nothing like a firework display over water – you see the spectacle twice.
I deliberately chose the location for that reason. Also, modern commercial fireworks are so big you need to be some distance away to take them all in.
And to get away from the noise too!
Yes. I was over 2 miles away across the bay so there was a slight delay between the firework exploding and the bang reaching me.
That is wonderful!
Thanks Teresa. It was scheduled for a week or so ago and got pushed back. All the January Squares I have ready to go will be posted regardless of a clash with Becky’s square from now on. It’s getting to complicated shuffling them around.
Haha yes, it happens to me too. But sometimes it works out for the better… don’t stress.
It’s quite easy to shuffle them as all I have to do is edit the day number. The problem is that moving posts back means I’m up to day 27 which is leaving me short on days.
Oh no 🤦🏻♀️ that’s not good!
That’s why all the posts stay as they are. I can decide which squares to use for the last few posts in a week or so.
Nice one, David! I’m going to have too many squares unless I double up, but I’ll worry about that later too. There’s always another squares challenge 🙂 🙂
Thanks Jo. I doubled up at the start of the month with a six word Saturday Up post. I may have to do something similar before the end of the month.
One of my favorite sort of “ups”. I love fireworks.

Thanks Janet. I’ve been enjoying this month of Up squares because of the variety in the squares.
wow now that’s a great shot. And two miles away – probably better for the sound too!
Another bonus is that you don’t get snarled up in traffic as everyone tries to head home.
Was thinking that!
Plus the reflection in the water which you wouldn’t see if you were at the display in the park.
Glorious capture

Beautiful shot!
Awesome burst and reflection! 🙂
Glad you liked it. I’ll be honest and admit that I went with the first firework photo I found that would crop square nicely.
Hey, sometimes going with the first one works out perfectly! 🙂
True. Sometimes it’s easy to over think when making a selection.
Yes, I do that all the time! When one has hundreds of thousands of archives, it is easy to do. LOL! 🙂
