Having the SSD drive in my MacBook Pro helped with the heavy lifting of picture editing in Lightroom and layout and design in Pages. This issue of Wabi Sabi is my collection of images “fireworks from below” shot in 2008 on [...]

Danbury, Connecticut. I was standing right next to the "gun" ( a big pipe) that shot this firework off. This year I thought it would be fun to watch the fireworks show from the perspective of the people who build it and set it off, so that’s what I did. I took hundreds of images [...]

The towns of Kent, New Preston, and Washington also share this lake and each Forth of July all the towns chip in for a fireworks show. The tradition is that people on each [...]
