Bastille Day Fireworks, Paris
Hi All,
I was in Paris for the Bastille Day fireworks, and I was prepared with tripod on hand. The show is pretty incredible. It was a revelation to us. We think it's such a great show that people ought to plan their trip to see it. It's always thirty minutes long, starts at 11 PM (because it's light until nearly 11 PM in mid-July in Paris), and is based off of and around the Eiffel Tower. The show is meant to be seen from the Champs de Mars, but looks great from just about any angle. The crowds start gathering around 6PM. They've added security all the way around the Champs de Mars that doesn't open until 6PM - new starting last year.
Without further ado, here are the amazing photos (if I do say so myself) .
Hope you enjoy! Please leave comments!

Just astonishing.
I've been in awe of your photography since I came across your winter Dolomites set...and then Greenland..and Portugal...just realised I missed your Milan cathedral set somehow, now I need to go through the archives again in case I've missed any more

Thanks so much for all the compliments! Seamus - that's probably the best compliment I've ever had about a photo. Adelaide - so great to hear from you again. I was about to look you up since I didn't hear from you at first. I always love hearing from you. Sarastro - an apartment in the 7th sounds like a great place to watch from.

Just wandered through your Madeira photos, so lovely.
Do you mind if I share my Tasmania photos...
