A friend told me that fireworks are for kids and a waste of (public) funds. Maybe they are a waste, but I still love them. On occasion, we should take a little time to appreciate life's little luxuries. Below, last year's fireworks display during the fête nationale in Metz at the Plan d'Eau. They make me feel like a kid again.
The beginning: clear, blue sky
Au début: le ciel bleu et clair
Letting loose at the end
Liberer à la fin
