July 4th is always a memorable occasion, but this year I covered the Detroit Tigers at the Los Angeles Angels. The pre game celebrations for these events are always a great tribute to our past and present. I decided to try to get a whole field view of the flag prior to the game so I wanted a higher angle. The Los Angeles Angels were able to make the game a great one for the fans, winning 5-1.

I wanted to get something different of the stadium after the game, I noticed a lot of photographers inside the stadium. I ventured out to get a few final shots of the fireworks after the game.
