Waiting for the show to begin (featured in Explore)
This photograph, taken from the Café Le Bourguet in Forcalquier, shows people waiting for the start of the fireworks to celebrate the fête nationale.
The fête nationale is celebrated on 14 July each year in France. It commemorates (amongst other things) the storming of the Bastille on 14 July 1789; hence, in the English speaking world, it is often simply referred to as "Bastille Day".
