Pictures of Niagara Falls at night and fireworks, taken July 4th, 2002 (12 pictures)

These pictures were taken on July 4th, 2002. I started out with the camera on a tripod facing Horseshoe falls across from the Victoria restaurant. However, I discovered that the fireworks were actually over the American falls, so I rested the camera on a fencepost, and probably didn't achieve the amount of stability you need for low light shots.
