Fireworks, and yes, the last one too, the camera set on longer time and no sharpness to create the BOKEH effect. It looks like tubes. :)
Valborsmässoafton - Last night of April

To be me this is a post with many shots. But I think it is worth it. Yesterday night, April 30th is the night when we celebrate spring in Sweden. We lit bonfires and have fireworks and special songs and things like that. Outdoors most of it. It is usually quite nice. I went there to see what my new camera equipment can do. I think it turned out well.

  17. What a festive and beautiful series of photos! Love the Beltane bonfire - even that wonderful sky seemed to be participating in the bonfire ritual! And the fireworks bokeh is terrific - looks like a bouquet of spring flowers! :-)
