Pyrotechnics Guild International Convention 2011 - Night One

Dear Mary and Jeni,

Some photo's from the Pyrotechnics Guild International Fireworks Convention in West Fargo North Dakota.

My favorite one.   Caused by a camera jiggle.

4 at once and great colors too

A little more modern art

Blue is an uncommon color in fireworks.

Lovely  huge gold Chrysanthemum fireworks.

More modern Art.   Love the yellow and gold together.

This one I like for the smoke trails.

That is all for now.   Well except if I can get this 3 minute video to load.  Too bad their sound system kept cutting in and out during this segment.

Love,
Nancy

Late last night

more pyro

It was not as good a night as Sunday, more wind and the smoke came right up to us at the beginning. However a few good shots and more tonight.

Love,

Nancy

Pyrotechnics

Yowwie! I hope you are getting all set up in your new house. I hope you have lots of friends to help you carry things in. I hope you get your computer up soon. I am fussing about trying to make my new camera work. Since I bought it mainly for the fireworks, here are a few shots from last night.

It was a perfect night for fireworks. Not too hot, not too cold. Black as the bottom of a well and the slight breeze blowing the smoke away from us.

There is only one thing wrong with this wonderful week of fireworks - you are spoiled forevermore for regular fireworks shows. I took 75 pictures so more will be forthcoming.

And of course, more tonight.

Love,

Nancy

love the booklist

Hey Mary,
I just love the booklist and the links. I have no idea how to link them and figure you don't need a link to my current title anyway. I am rereading them all to get ready for the last one. I also ordered an audio cassette copy for Mom. It should come on July 21st too.
So, how many copies is your library ordering?

I have a new camera ordered and hope it comes before I leave for the Minnesota Quilt show on Wednesday. I want it so I can practice up before the PGI convention in West Fargo this August.
The last time the Pyrotechnics Quild was here it was so-o windy I didn't get very many good shots. This is from the time before. Part of the finale. Imagine it. Two hours of the very best fireworks from all over the world. Each presenter trying to do better than the others. And this is just the last of FIVE days...or should I say nights, of fireworks.
