StylinRed: I do have quite a few photos of the Canada Night show, but didn't have my tripod with me for the South Africa show, though I did get some cool shots of the blazing sunset and lightening, missed the UK Night show cause of work, and didn't get many shots of the China Night show cause it was just too crazy that night, lol. I only got 1 of Canada, and a couple of sky/lightning from South Africa night online though. I have a couple at cannabian.deviantart.com and will probably eventually get some more up, just been busy.

I love that the eye after being drawn to the fireworks then finds the light speckled shoreline. The true scale of the fireworks is thus magnificently revealed. Great mise-en-scene.

Awesome to see another Vancouverite on IFL! Where were you shooting form, I was on kits beach which was absolutely jam packed, but the view was quite a bit different. Also, what camera were you using?
