yeah it was great fishycomics, especially thr rose garden was at its gorgeous best at this time of the year. The fireworks show was great, especially so since it was ata much closer range than others I have seen. While returning after the show, the garden looked even better with all the lights on.

The fireworks show is great, and it would be held every saturday night till August end in Butchart garden.

Are you folks using the zoom lens or the kit len's for the fireworks?

And the mary24 photo is very sweet looking.
