Fireworks

How was your New Year's Eve, everybody? Last night we didn't do anything much. Each of us spent time with our own computers and then we watched fireworks from our kitchen window. I wanted to take some pics of them with my slow digital camera, but it was SO hard, so I couldn't get too many good ones. I knew if I had gone outside the balcony, I would have been able to get better pics, but it was too cold last night. It was -17'C (today it's even colder, -19'C).

Even so, lots of people were outside last night, lighting up fireworks and fire crackers. Brrrrrrrrr...they started lighting up fireworks even at 7 pm already, can you believe it? HA HA HA HA HA HA HA...

My Brit friend MC went to Luosto with her hubby to have a date night and they enjoyed firework display there.

Last night hubby wanted to sleep early at first, since he had woken up at 7 am yesterday morning and he hadn't taken any nap, but since the fireworks made lots of noises outside, he decided to get up again and we ended up watching a cartoon together ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...

Anyway, here are some of the pics I took last night. Mind you that my camera's not a photographer's camera, so there were SO MANY failed ones he he he...I had to use my night mode but it meant that my grip on the camera had to be SO steady. Plus I had to press the button at the right time, otherwise I wouldn't catch a thing. Oh well...I just want to share with you what I saw he he he he...hope they're at least clear enough for you.

First pic: I managed to take a pic of the firework before it fully "expanded itself". GRRR!!!!



Second pic: Around midnight a bunch of teenagers lit these kinds of fire crackers on our apt. building's parking lot.


The rest of the pics are the fireworks he he he he...
