More of the Kessock Bridge fireworks
These are my four favourite photos of the Kessock Bridge fireworks. If you saw today's P&J then you'll have seen that they used the staff tog's pic from somewhere in South Kessock, and I can see why, but on this occasion I do think mine from North Kessock were stronger images. I wanted to show the scale of the fireworks in context and I think my photos achieved that fairly well.
Several people have been posting photos of the event on Flickr, and a search will find lots of blurry and badly-timed examples but also some very nice ones, especially this one by a guy who actually got into the water near where I was standing and made great use of the shoreline in the foreground to produce a superbly rounded image. Best I've seen so far. (I've seen some from high above the bridge that could have been really good but unfortunately they're way too soft.)
I'll also take this opportunity to link to Inverness graphic designer Sarah Patience's web site, for no reason other than she linked to mine in her blog and I'm always happy to give a shout out to anyone else representing north Scotland on the web!
Anyway, here are the pics…

Hey Andrew,
Thanks for the link, you’re photo’s are stunning. The one the P&J opted for is nothing compared to these. Hope you enjoyed the show and congrats for not sliding off the pier!
All the best,
Sarah

Andrew,
Amazing photo’s – I love the illumination of the smoke/clouds reflecting the colour of the fireworks. Great inspiration. Thanks
