The 4th of July is always a fun time to photograph with all the festivities. Went downtown Memphis to Mud Island to check out the music and fireworks with some friends. Always try to bring your camera, you never know what event, action you might get to photograph, and have some fun.
Andy Childs from Sixwire was playing along with some of his friends. Steve Frey, Brady Spencer and Freddie Kirksey. I believe all these guys now live in Nashville, with Andy growing up here in Memphis. BTW…Andy does an incredible job singing ELVIS!!!
What’s cool…Andy, Steve, Brady and Freddie have tagged these photos on FB.

Try to photograph from different angles, they had flag poles in the background which was kind of nice. The bridge was off to the right which made for a good background at times. Sometimes challenging though with some of the distractions, just keep photographing, reviewing, critiquing you photographs and you will get better. Photographed these from f8-f11 shutter speed around 1/180 – 1/250 of a second to stop motion.Remember composition and light are key to making a good photograph.
Till next time, click away, all the best. Blair
