My wife, kids, and I thought—since there are no official coastside fireworks this 4th—to drive about in search of "outlaw" fireworks shows.  Here we have three shots from our trusty Pillar Point outlaws. Last year this group put on a show that rivaled the official fireworks that were being shot off just a few hundred feet away. This time they were all alone.

These photos are "composite photos." That means they are made using the digital equivalent of the common technique of opening the camera shutter and putting the lens cap on and off to achieve what amounts to a multiple exposure.
