Summary

[edit]
Description

The main Summer Festival - the "Festa Major" - in the Spanish / Catalan town of Sitges, near Barcelona is a big event.

For a week there are many things going on and on 23 August there is always a big firework display. More than 100,000 people come from all over Europe and beyond. Many of the events, including the fireworks are repeated again, on a slightly smaller scale, on 23 September.

On this occasion my camera caught a huge heart-shaped firework when it exploded above the town's seaside church. There are always huge crowds lining the streets, promenade and beach for these events. Some watch from 2-3 miles or more away.

This was the first time I had seen the Sitges display and I wasn't properly prepared with a tripod so had to hand-hold my shots but the wide-angle lens helped minimise handshake.
