Saturday Snapshots – Santa Marta Fuochi d'Artificio - Santa Marta Firework Display 2011

 

The Santa Marta celebrations which started with the Santa Marta Processione ended with a tremendous Firework Display over the lake at 11pm on July 29th. No words are needed, the photos and videos say it all.

Finally a selection of our video experimental films of the fireworks, all very short but they give a better impression of the event than the still photos.   I hope you will enjoy if you have a few minutes to spare.

  1. Linda these photos are fantastic, they are really stunning. I like the second picture best but they are all excellent. I have missed every fireworks display here this year, either in the UK or the night Nigel arrived he was too tired :-( Take care Diane
