Canada Day, part deux

OK well, we're not as close to the foreworks for Canada Day... but I think I got a couple ok ones. I tried a couple on zoom but they was no good, so I had to take full pics and do major cropping. The detail is not so great, but for anyone that missed it, here's a couple of shots from the roof.
:-)


Yellow...


Purple spiders...


This one's not bad...


Well not so big but interesting and a wee bit sparkly...

The doublemint twins... twice!...


OK this one is botched, someone, and I'm not saying who... (Didier) was being a little wisenhiemmer and was bouncing up n' down on the roof. So this one is a bit wavey and shakey, but if you look at it close up, there's some fun details... so well, like that white gut with the 'fro on PBS, we have a happy accident...


Blue...

Blue, two...


The Jetsons...


Me likey this one...


Red n' White...



The finale...


And so, there you go...
Happy Canada y'all.

Guess what I'm doing after work today?

AWWWW YEA!
Going to see the dentist!
WOO HOO!

Leaving work an hour early and heading right to the dental office. And since this is my last visit for the year, *sniff sniff*, I even wore a purdy shirt! heh I'm gonna miss seeing my Dentist, the hawtie that he is! *sigh* And the up side he also lives in the village, so we'll run into him from time to time.

After tonight I will have a gleaming, sparkling, stellar smile. Git yer sunglasses ready kids, cause I'll be all smiles!

Once I'm finished there, *UGH* unfortunatley, I have a Condo Meeting. Our first Annual Assembly. Fun to be sure. (Not!) Fortunately It's in a bar so I'll get me a double anything and settle in with it and a straw. (Remember I'll still be all novicaned up! the straw will ne necessary!)

hmmm I was just thinking... if the Condo meeting was BEFORE the Dentist appointment I wouldn't need any novicane. Oh well, too late the re-arrange the schedule.

But then, the evening improves again... The Fireworks Competition starts tonight and we'll be watching from our roof top deck! YAY! We likey fireworks! --- it's no lie that the location of the condo, in association to the location of the fireworks competion was a factor in our selecting our home --- I'll see if I can take a pic or two... I've never tried to take pics of fireworks before with my digital camera. I'll be using the tripod for sure.

(Milky, you got any recommendations? Shutter rate? Exposure?)
