Paignton Fireworks

This year the display was set off from a barge just off the pier which meant I could
photograph it from the garden rather than the roof. Here's a selection:

There are a few more on Flickr which is, as always, the best place to view.

Re: Paignton Fireworks

Good work and agree with Ian re the town, particularly No2

Re: Paignton Fireworks

Thanks folks

Yes I agree having a bit of the town in does add context. When I've shot this display in the past it's been from the roof which has a clearer view past the house that just peeps into some of the images and obscures the lights of the prom. The three without town are my attempt at producing something abstract for one of my Flickr groups

Cheers,
John

Re: Paignton Fireworks

Thanks Peter Now, if only they'd pay me I could use it to justify to Mrs. John buying that nice new camera I 'need'

Cheers,
