San Francisco New Year fireworks from afar - 2007

Microscopic fireworks over San Francisco as seen from the hills across the Bay (about 25 miles away) shortly after midnight on January 1, 2007.

These start tiny and will -at best- look SMALL in a wide expanse of sky.  The camera was handheld.  As a result, light from the buildings across the bay aren't stationery.

 I did this on a whim when I heard the usual sounds outside and then took these through a closed window (from my computer room).

SLIDESHOW: These are very small files and can be viewed one after the other, with "Next" button.   But you can also set the Slideshow, (Click at top right of gallery), to 1 second (instead of default 3 seconds).  The slideshow feature downsizes each photo even more to fit that display and loses clarity from original photos!  Nevertheless, I hope some enjoy the TINY display :-).
