| Name | Deanna B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | The area above the tree lines were dark, the third burst and fragmentation was probably a medium compared to the other two I described. I had phone issues for last four months and that is why I have not been able to submit this sooner. Also website issues. Just happy to finally post this tiny surprise last year. |

| Remarks | Yes, there was a larger one 2 seconds into the event, then one second later another, then right at the edge of the tree line a last one. We never saw more than that. It had a slight blue tint for the explosions. |
| Fragmentation | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | Yes, the fragmentation that flew off at part one and two the initial big one and then a small one before the tree line which I could not see the full amount. It let off about 3 to 7 pieces, as it left from the burst that was tinted blue it looked slightly yellow or just not as bright white as the rest of it. |
