4th of July Freedom

I have a bit of a special place in my heart for the fourth of July. It might have something to do with that fact that I was supposed to be born on that day, and it was 1976 (yes aging myself) so I have the whole bicentennial thing going as well. I did come a few days early though. But I digress.
Before all the parade floats, the picnics, the fireworks and whatever else we do to celebrate, it is good to reflect on what this day is about and how it profoundly affects our freedom to do most anything as long as it is legal and not harming another. I can parallel that with being a photographer, where you pretty much have creative freedom to capture an image the way you see it. Artistic freedom. Happy 4th everyone!
