Why are we drawn to fireworks every time we see them? Over the Denver skyline, including Denver’s home of the Bronco’s, Empower Field Stadium and Mile High Monument, fireworks bring a mile high magic to the air. Empower Field in Denver, Colorado, adds a vibrant backdrop for these dazzling displays. Indeed, it gives the whole city just that little extra burst of color and energy. Meanwhile, I stayed in the parking lot and set up my camera, waiting for the perfect moment to come.
Denver’s skyline aglow, stadium lights went on, and the city sparkled. I double checked my camera settings, and felt the anticipation. There was the rumble of the stadium as the first firework shot up. Each burst lit up the sky in an exciting way, as the stadium and Mile High Monument became the stars of the night. Watching fireworks here always makes Empower Field in Denver, Colorado, feel even more legendary.
I framed the shot to capture the fireworks dancing above the glowing stadium, with the downtown skyline in the background. The shutter clicked, capturing the moment when a burst appeared to have stopped, frozen in the air. Time itself seemed to hold its breath for a second. The stadium was solid and proud with the fireworks in the spotlight. Perhaps, the Mile High Monument and Empower Field weren’t only a landmark and a stadium. Instead, they were storytellers of this city. Empower Field in Denver, Colorado, always tells a vivid story through its spectacular events.
The passion and tradition that runs deep here was painted on each firework, each one representing Denver’s spirit. As the show progressed, I kept clicking the shutter to make sure to get each moment of the show. I took one last look at the shot I had just captured as the last burst faded into the sky.
It was perfect. The magic, the excitement, the sense of community…it was all there, preserved in time. Empower Field in Denver, Colorado, captures more than just moments; it encapsulates the spirit of the city. I knew that I captured more than just a picture. I had captured a piece of Denver’s heart, ready to share with anyone who sees it.
