Fireworks demonstration
« on: January 07, 2016, 22:26:37 »
A few weeks before Christmas, a professional fireworks company in a nearby town did a demonstration of available commercial fireworks followed by a demonstration of their own skills.

I did not really have a good position to shoot from, but a few shots where nice enough....

A solitaire from the consumer fireworks:


Another nice one from the commercial series:


A golden carpet:


Explosion in Hell

I like how the lines are thin and pronounced. Nice photos.

Thanks guys.
Not much wind that day. So the smoke was building up...
Usually it is a PITA, but on the last shot it worked ;-)

cheers

I really like the golden carpet, especially that you included part of the tree.
