The Fourth of July!

It's the Fourth of July! And this is my birthday cake! And, having been born in Connecticut, that makes me a Yankee Doodle Dandy! And the cake was delicious! I didn't really plan this shot - I just brought the cake out on to the porch to photograph it close-up. After setting it on the table, I stood back and thought "Holy smokes! Look how cool it looks with the flag in the background!" So that's how I shot it.
