Being a veteran myself in the US Army I had great access to be near the canons when they were going to be fired. I setup at an angle where I can capture all 4 canons firing with the fireworks in the background. I decided to leave all the soldiers visible including the powder cans for the canon signifying the importance of Independence day, that cause of the soldiers its the reason the nation has its independence.
