From unofficial block parties to city-sponsored events, Fourth of July firework displays seemed to have been all over social media platforms this past weekend, and rightly so. Not only does our digitally-enthralled age grant us the mediums to share in the celebration with friends and family all over the globe, we’re also witnesses to a seemingly endless supply of perspectives and stunning photography. Adding to that list is a viewpoint we’re not used to seeing.
