I loved seeing all the little flashing lights from cameras all over the city, ground, skyscrapers, and all.

[@BrianCheng24]

Sure as heck beat the fireworks we have here in San Diego.

[@hermangareis]

Crazy how time flies! Cameras are setup and ready to go for this year.

[@JustBov]

If only they had this scale of fireworks for New Years...

[@kasnick71]

[@elhuero21]

Amazing.... I love NEW YORK!

[@kerzmick]

drunk gusts can be a pain your filming was fantastic

[@hermangareis]

Yeah In a town called Weehawken. Built right on top of the Lincoln Tunnel. About 5 minutes from midtown Manhattan. Its a great place to live. Half the price & double the space. The view is not too shabby either.

[@Wildpony98]

Hear a firework going off in the background at 1.23 ? "Ahhhhh" (somebody popped) lol

[@canturkbaba]

This is done very nicely. Could you please share the equipment you used to shoot this?

[@madbetamax]

Beautiful video! I'm really impressed by your Leica! Quick question- how often do they do the 4th of July fireworks on the Hudson? Is it every other year?

[@carsash120]

so fricken pretty! Lucky you got to see it!

[@hermangareis]

There aint nothin wrong with Texas! Lots of good things down there. The grass is always greener. Besides NYC is just a few hours away.

[@Commander063]

I was trippin balls on shrooms watching this.

[@DubKustomz]

WOW sow Awesome, its a shame in my country they dont do the fire works thing....

[@DubKustomz]

happy 4th of July to everyone!!

[@liangmingyu]

Where do you living?Is it new jersey? It's really beautiful.

[@hermangareis]

You can go onto Boulevard East. Its a great vantage point but it will be very full. I believe they close car traffic after 4PM.

[@RobertMorningstar]

Excellent camerawork and high quality imagery. Thank you for posting and sharing your POV of the real New York ...Happy Independence Day.to you and yours. -> Robert M*

[@hermangareis]

@canturkbaba Thanks for your comments. I just used a Leica D-Lux 5 for this.

[@freak0ut12]

Hi, Is there a tall common place for taking photographs near by, accessible for the public ?

[@liangmingyu]

Yesterday I went to see the fireworks,but I saw nothing. too disappointed. It was 42nd ST 12Av. Too many buildings and too many people.I think it's better to go to New Jersey to see the fireworks. Feel better when I see your video. Thanks.

[@robertbierd]

thanks for sharing!

[@Nerfherder034]

4pm?!?!?! holy crap, where i was tonite, there was still traffic at eleven, but then again i am only in meridian, ID. not much of a show compared to yours there.

[@stockbroker2000]

[@ZINC_CROSS6868]

Wow Chicago is to cheap to do this lol , especially with our new mayor which changed our taste of Chicago to the second week of july .It use to be held the week of the 4th followed by a huge display on the 3rd.
