Fireworks

Posing here with model Anne in front of a firework-shop we knew not a thing about producing fireworks and the causes of patterns and exciting colours it produce.

Most of the locals do know this curing action and every time I get to these areas I bring my nutmeg balm, grateful to the woman of the convent ...
