Ann Arbor and Saline don't have fireworks displays. Ann Arbor use to because as a family we always went. But, there are some towns in Washtenaw County that do host them. Manchester, Whitmore Lake, Grass Lake and Ypsilanti.
If you are looking for a fireworks to attend anywhere in Michigan there is a good site to check out, Michigan Fireworks where you can put in your city and check where and what time they start.
Taking photos of fireworks can be hard. Darren Rowse of Pro-Blogger has a some really great tips and techniques of taking those shots.
I thnk I need some help so will try some of Darren's techniques this July 4th.

I will want to see what suggestions Darren has for taking fireworks and give it a try myself. These photos turned out nicely.
That's funny, Missy. I named my fireworks picture, BOOM. HA! Have a great week end, I get to work most days, yippie. If buyers are out this weekend, they are serious! imho.
LOL, my photos last year were so-so, but this year I have my tripod & my remote ready to go, hoping for better result. Have a happy 4th!
Missy ..that is some great info and tips..I wasn t planning to take pictures just relaxing ..but maybe I will..Have a wonderful 4th..Thank you

Missy, you have to use a tripod. Set your camera on manual settings and use a small aperture setting. Next, use the longest time exposure that you can. Multiple bursts can create a unique frame. You may need to toy a little bit with the aperture but this is the essence...

Missy - Enjoy the fireworks displays this weekend. Looking forward to seeing how you make out with your photo taking this year.
Have a great 4ht, Missy. The top photo you included is pretty cool.Thanks for sharing Darrin's post - but it's more than I care to think about, other than the tripod. And since I don't have an SLR...

Tripod and longer shutter opening time is good for night shots. But I don't know much about the brightness of fireworks and photography
