    Fireworks Championships - Plymouth 2019

    SWMBO & I treated ourselves to a day or two in Plymouth, to co-incide with the Fireworks Championships.

    We were blessed with reasonable weather, although a little windy (before the skies opened on Friday!).

    There were 6 companies competing, but one failed to produce a display due to a truculent computer throwing a hissy fit.

    At first, I thought the small vessels (full of beer-swillers) were going to be a PITA, but actually they proved useful, in that they give some sense of scale - these were BIG fireworks - being fired just over 500 metres away from where we were watching.

    A mixture of images from the entrants below.

    Beautifully captured John.

    Ever since a child I have been enchanted by fireworks and your images are showing the best of the best. I look forward to seeing some more.

                Great shots John, not been to the fireworks for years now. My Godson got a flat up on the Hoe, that looks right across to the Breakwater.

                        What excellent set of firework display images, which has captured the essence of firework displays ie big, bright and magical.
