Malta International Fireworks Festival

Had fun this evening shooting fireworks. Not exactly my cup of tea. The Grand Harbour in Valletta was lighted with a vivid display of fireworks, syncronised to music for the 11th annual festival. Maltese and foreign factories  presented some really spectacular pyrotechnic displays.
