EIFFEL TOWER ON FIRE !
This is a Timlapse Sequence of the 14th of July fireworks in Paris, France. It's the anniversary of the French Revolution and also the 120th anniversary of the Eiffel Tower.
Around 700 000 people gathered in front of the monument to see the pyrotechnics following a free concert by Johnny Hallyday. The firework was on for a little more then half an hour in which we took around 6000 photos.

1. Really neat. Especially the images being shown on the lower levels while the fireworks were
happening.

7. Of all the cheesy Millenial celebrations at 12 a.m. 1/1/00, the only one I enoyed....
.....was the fireworks display on La Tour Eiffel, which was spectucular and at the same time elegant. So very Parisian.
