Off Topic - Fireworks Competition!

Posted: 05 Aug 2008 00:43:28

Hi everyone - I know it's not related to LambWatch but if anyone is interested, this weekend heather and I went to a fireworks competition in Leicestershire. It was ace and there were 3 teams competing first and then a closing display by the organisers which was incredible. I took some pics from the show which you can see on my personal website - Stanford Hall Fireworks 2008. By the way if you would like to start a discussion about anything and everything, all you have to do is be a member of the forum and post a new topic using the link the top right of the page!

Dan, that was amazing. Our extra large mega church here in our neighborhood does and awesome fireworks display every 4th of July. This year was particularly great. The fireworks were coordinated with the church orchestra. They began with John Williams orchestra score from Star Wars! The whole long thing. It was absolutely wonderful.

Fabulous photos and video Dan, the fireworks must've looked fantastic live! Thanks for sharing them! Blackpool host the world fireworks championships throughout September so if you like that kind of thing it's definitely worth a look :-)
