For those of you who don't know, Riverfest is an annual Labor Day festival in Cincinnati which culminates in a stunning (and long; 40-minute) fireworks display.  This year TraderJake, The Black Perl and I were very fortunate to have VIP seats along the riverfront for the fireworks.  Here are some of the pictures I walked away with.  The Black Perl may decided to share his as well.

Ah, now I understand.

Nice pics.

I liked the fireworks  :)

*removed duplicate topic as per your request*

^Thanks.  I'm still not sure how that happened.

Nice pics as always.

Also where is the RFG banner on the bridge?

^Talk to TraderJake about that one...

I noticed that the forum is downsizing the pictures.  Here they are in the correct size:  http://www.hydrobond.net/index/2007.09.02/index.html

You can fork the money for that one Scott.

Thank God Urban Ohio and RF Generation both use SMF.

Those pictures are awesome Jay. Does Julie know that she is famous?

I'm not sure.  I sent her her pics and never got a response.
