Ignis Brunensis

So I'm after some frustrating experiments with blogspot's upload function I found that it was a far easier route to just upload my vids to youtube and embed them. So I hope you enjoy the fruit of my efforts in posting these, though honestly it's not that different from a screen saver :p I'll have to take better videos in the future so stay tuned!

Last week was the start of the annual fireworks competition Ignis Brunensis, which might be the biggest spectacle in the Czech Republic outside of them cinching IIHF hockey championship on Sunday :) The atmosphere is generally filled with that mix of Summer carnival and the energy of students both high school and university sensing their Summer holiday is almost upon them. The weather has serendipitously held up during the nights of the show, while during the day there seems to be an extreme fluctuation between harsh thundershowers then blindingly sunny weather every couple hours.

Just a small snippet of the first actual show which lasted for about 20 mins, at a certain point I have to put down the phone and just watch the show :p
