Most of us snap thousands of photos and videos each year on our smartphones, but it's possible none are as cool as the few firework pictures we get to capture. With 4th of July festivities underway, U.S. skies are about to pop with color from fireworks shows across the country. In fact, some fireworks shows are already starting early and will continue through the weekend.

If you plan on taking photos of the bright skies, you'll be happy to know that your favorite Android phone is more than capable of capturing the moment. However, simply pointing your phone camera at the sky and shooting photos won't lead to the best results. You need to tweak your phone's camera settings and add accessories if you have them to get the perfect shot.
