Stunning! The fireworks blossom is so perfect. Very timely on the shutter for this one. 5 stars.

@Barbara: Thank you, Barbara ... this is one of my favorites!

Marion from Nanaimo, BC, Canada

Hi Judy, I have decided that no one knows how to light up the stars ...you have to click on them to give a person five stars and because I agree with Barbara that this is stunning I lit up your five stars. :D It really is a beautiful blossom and well timed. It was 95 at our place today and my heat pump is having a terrible time keeping up. It is 78 in here and it is set for 72. I'm really warm. Very unseasonable for Vancouver Island in June.

@Marion: Thank you, Marion for your stars! *S*
That little Canon had so many scene settings - wish I still had it.
