Dieter used a cigarette lighter to ignite a small firework on the street.

A small firework car (hard to tell it was a car) blasted sparks out of its rear and moved a small distance across the street.

Katy and her brother Dieter both held sparklers to celebrate the 4th.

Fireworks produce smoke and sparklers were no exception. Here, Dieter was enveloped in smoke from the sparklers.

A video presentation of the fireworks that were set off in the street that evening. It ends with professional fireworks low over the houses.

A small tower of flame shot up into the air. This was shot through a telephoto lens so the care appeared closer than it actually was.

Elsewhere in the neighborhood, someone launched a firework rocket. It was illegal, because the maximum height allowed by law for non-professional fireworks was two feet.
