An annual event just north of Los Angeles. I guess I focused mostly on the Cannon fire and tried some super juicy saturated contrasty shots vs. sepia for an old age look.

They call this "Great Ball of Fire"

Ohhhh my gosh you must have been standing right next to Nikolai cause he just posted the exact same picture you did of the canon firing a ball of flame (your first image in the post) that's pretty funny that you should both post an image that looks the same.

I really like your last shot in this series, would have been great to see this special event......thanks for sharing........ Skippy (Australia)

yup, we met up with Nik and he was next to me. The cannons were going off a lot so I don't know if it was the same blast or not but from the angle, it looks like the cannon itself is the same one.
