Fireworks Over Navy Pier

We had dinner with a friend, then walked back to her condo to watch fireworks from her balcony. While I don't like heights, this was totally worth it for the view! Used my mirrorless and a gorilla pod. Convenient if going to a restaurant first, but not as stable as the 'real thing.'

Fav. Beautiful fireworks shot and reflections on the water. Last Summer passed without our regular festas with lots of fireworks. Was hoping this year would be ok but no decision whether they will be held this Summer as covid is still with us though everything looks much better.
