>>3680155>Why does everyone just take photos of fireworks isolated in the sky on 4th of July?Same reason most people take portraits with the subject's head centered in frame and absolutely nothing taking up half of the photo. People aren't very good photographers.
So they see a sparkly bang in the sky and they think "Oh, that's pretty", and so they take a picture of the pretty thing without thinking to give it context. Good photographers will; new or bad photographers won't; non-photographers won't even get a good shot of the firework alone and context-free in the sky.
You'll also find this with photos of the moon--most people's moon shots are just the moon all by itself in the sky and look exactly the same as any other half-competent moon shot.
