Thank you La Ronde - PAGE OFFICIELLE and Six Flags for the giving me the opportunity to photograph the International Fireworks Competition in Montreal (L'International des Feux Loto-Québec). I was able to get official media credentials to photograph the show from the grand stand inside the park. I had a plan to photograph the Japan's show from a nearby rooftop, but unfortunately due to rain the cloud blocked the majority of the show. I'd love to be invited to come back! Thank you Focus Pyro / Carl Desjardins Photographe for giving me some guidance and inspiration.
