Festa 2006: Part I - Fireworks in the Making

by physiar - last update: Nov 3, 2006

The interior of a fireworks shell. The contents include highly explosive mixtures of potassium nitrate, a charcoal made from appropriately-treated vine stalks, and sulphur...
One of the types of firework shells, stocked and ready for firng (YEYYYY!)
A second kind of firework rounds, these too ready to go up in the air...
This one is just to say that size DOES matter!!!
A series of firework rockets lying in a field, just waiting for that one little spark...
Rows of rockets. Imagine the domino effect that happens when you light the one in at the end...

Alright, these were air fireworks...
... now for the ground fireworks...

These are parts that are stocked in the local workshop (almost every town has one, some two). These are then assembled to create the actual firework.
And finally, the mounted firework, just ready to be set alight.

To see these fireworks at work, click proceed to the next Travelogue!
