Summer Nights

Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 20 August 2007 in Lifestyle & Culture and Portfolio.

Summertime in Japan means its time for fireworks. Lots of big, spectacular displays (see Alfredo and Celialee's recent shots) but you can see lots of smaller-scale displays like this too, with groups of friends or families heading out to the park...

Although I'm now in England, this blog will still feature photos from Japan for the foreseeable future.

I apologise in advance if I'm tardy with commenting on your blogs or returning comments during the week... I will get to you though!

Very very nice. Excellent demonstration of creative camera shake.
