Fourth of July at the Racetrack, near Salisbury, Connecticut
1999

A nighttime scene of a firework rocket ascending with a bright trail, illuminating the surrounding area with a reddish glow. Smoke drifts in the air, and the backdrop features a dark, forested hill. In the foreground, a fenced-off area with a road, grassy field, and a few structures is visible under the dim light.
