This is a Timlapse Sequence of the 14th of July fireworks in Paris, France. It's the anniversary of the French Revolution and also the 120th anniversary of the Eiffel Tower.
Around 700 000 people gathered in front of the monument to see the pyrotechnics following a free concert by Johnny Hallyday. The firework was on for a little more then half an hour in which we took around 6000 photos.

    Very Cool!

    Did you set the elaspe time automatically or you did each click manually?

    If you look at the fireworks, and how smooth their motion is, I'd guess it was a timelapse automatic. Also it might be a hell lot of work to click this much of fotos automatically at such short time-intervalls ;)

    It's a public viewing platform, anyone can go up there. The night of the fireworks they charged 16 EUR admission however.

    superb except for the audio - is this a French "Golden Earring" variant of some sort? I like Golden Earring but these guys aren't my favorite, am afraid. Otherwise, great images - cheers.
