Fireworks in South Mississippi - Looking South - 10 Miles North Of The Coast - 07-04-2023

Always wanted to see how the DJI would do in night time conditions for the 4th of July and I finally got my chance tonight. This is just a small clip of all the footage I got in 4k. It's not the best but I couldn't resist. The fireworks that are the farthest away slightly to the left in the rear of the picture is the Deer Island fireworks display, launched from a barge I believe (and the island did catch on fire which was quickly extinguished) and the line of lights to the left of that is the Biloxi-Ocean Springs Bridge and the yellow lighted building to the right of the firework display is the Beau Rivage on Hwy 90 in Biloxi, it's so beautiful out here I had to share plus I haven't been able to get out there with my trucks lately because it's been much too hot, if it's not the rain it's the heat out here. Everyday I am looking to get a window to run in the late afternoon and it's been in the mid to high 90's everyday with the heat index well over a hundred and the trucks just overheat in minutes everytime, the GoPro usually overheats first then everything else starts to fail shortly afterwards. I was raised in this heat so it's not so bad for me but the trucks cannot take it at all, even the DJI overheats during the day and it was right at 90 degrees while I was getting this video, almost two hours of video total... Please hang in there guys I will be back out there asap. Happy 4th of July everyone... I hope to see ya'll soon and thanks for watching!

This was really neat and has me wondering why we didn't try it 🤣

[@tompendley1172]

I would love to see you what you two would come up with on the 4th or the 1st of the year, many thanks!

Dude this is really sick! I grew up near a resort hotel that did fireworks and there was a hill next to it you could hike to watch the fireworks and it looked just like this!

[@tompendley1172]

Hey, thank you very much! Those hotels go all out with their fireworks, sounds like you had a great vantage point to enjoy them. I used to drive over there but fighting the traffic each way these days just isn't worth it to me anymore. I think I must be getting old or something horrific like that, lol....
