Go Fourth on the River Lights Up New Orleans Skies

Thousands gathered along the banks of the Mississippi River  at 9 p.m. on July 4 to watch a fantasy of fireworks paint the skies over  New Orleans.  The display, shot from two barges stationed mid-river, was the culmination of Go Fourth on the River, New Orleans’ annual Independence Day celebration.
