40 Awesometacular Fireworks Photos!


As we approach the Fourth of July, it seems fitting to focus on “America” in the Disney theme parks. Walt Disney World and Disneyland are rife with Americana and Patriotic displays. The reason for this stems all the way back to Walt Disney himself, who loved America. He himself was probably as American as anyone could possibly be.

Check back tomorrow for a Patriotic salute to “all nations, but mostly America” (minus the “all” nations part–it’ll just be a salute to America). If you need an immediate America at Disney “fix,” I suggest you check out these awesome America on Parade photos at ImagineeringDisney.com.

For now, as a salute to the OTHER thing that makes July 4th notable, here are some of my favorite fireworks photos from Walt Disney World and Disneyland.

    Tom, I swear your pictures are more beautiful than seeing the fireworks live!

    These photos are sooo amazing! I have never seen anything like this before. Keep being awesome.

    These are all so fantastic! I was just telling my husband tonight that Disney has ruined fireworks for me. If it’s not choreographed to music and displayed behind a castle I’m just not that interested.

    Although I prefer the MK firework shows I really seem to gravitate towards your Disneyland firework photos. Thanks for sharing!

      I need to try some new angles on Disneyland. That spot in front of Partners is my de facto go-to location!

    I wanted to change my desktop picture to some fireworks for the season, how hard was it to choose which one to use?!!? I’m glad you’re here to take beautiful shots of fireworks to capture the moments that I can’t!

    Hey I’m a big fan of your photography, I was just curious if you could recommend some settings. I’m shooting on a d7000 my first dslr and I really could use some tips on shooting, I bought my tripod and have a 55-3000. I’m going to rent a Nikon 14-24 for the trip as well. I’m assuming you used a remote shutter control for it? your pics are amazing.
