What would light be without darkness? As July draws to a close, here's a recap of Independence Day (2009), splendid lighting effects due not just to roman candles etc. but to a thousand pyromaniacs smoking up the atmosphere with unsafe and insane flammable product.

Bonfire of the manatees
True, light needs dark to shine. Or rather they need each other to exist. Beautifully dark images. :)

ReplyDeleteI agree with Brian.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots and who doesn'tlove playing with dangerous flammable products?

ReplyDeleteWe can't purchase fireworks in Australia - at least not legally! Fireworks displays are controlled, public events only - or mainly! Just New Year's Eve is one time you see that some people still manage to get fireworks somewhere!
