2009 Macy's Fourth of July Fireworks

I visited Weehawken, New Jersey on July 4 to photograph the annual Macy's fireworks display. The fireworks were moved from the East River to the Hudson River for 2009 to celebrate the 400th anniversary of Henry Hudson's exploration of the river which was later named for him.
