These were the pyrotechnics for the Jason Aldean performance - flame throwers and smoke machines. Way cool!!!
Jason Aldean performed before the State Farm Home Run Derby at Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona. He is an American Country Music singer with many hits.

INDIAN ILLUMINATIONS BRING BELFAST TO A CELEBRATION STANDSTILL
Age-old Indian storytelling met modern-day pyrotechnics in Belfast city centre at the weekend as an audience of more than 10,000 took part in one of the largest outdoor theatre events ever staged in the city.
Inspired by Diwali, the Indian Festival of Light, ‘Nine Nights’, presented by leading ethnic arts group, ArtsEkta, and produced by the internationally acclaimed Walk The Plank outdoor theatre specialists, was a spectacular celebration of Indian culture played out in music, dance, lights and pyrotechnics.
Staging the venture was a challenge of massive proportions for ArtsEkta, involving communities from across the city and showcasing groups and individuals who, until
the event, had little or no experience of performing in public. After weeks of training, 600 local people in vivid costumes led the stunning parade of dancing, shimmering lanterns as it wended its way from Custom House Square to City Hall to mark the start of the event. They were accompanied by the pulsating rhythm of fifty-four Indian dhol drums, each played to thunderous effect by a newcomer to the instrument.
Nisha Tandon, Director of ArtsEkta, admits that the standard of community performance – not to mention the noise levels! – blew her away as it provided an exuberant highlight of the wider Creative Belfast Programme funded by Belfast City Council and the Arts Council of Northern Ireland.
She says, “We work around the year with schools and community groups right across the Province, building arts skills and confidence in people of every age and from all sorts of ethnic and social backgrounds. I know how much creativity is out there but, even I was amazed to see how so-called ‘ordinary people’ were transformed into fabulous performers for one incredible night of entertainment and a street party like no other.”
At City Hall audiences and community performers came together to enjoy the colourful and atmospheric re-enactment by Walk The Plank of the epic tale of ‘Nine Nights’. Dance, music and large scale pyrotechnics and other special effects brought to life for modern audiences the epic and ancient Hindu story which is a celebration of creation, birth and renewal, marking the start of new journeys, hopes and aspirations.
Congratulating all those who came together to make the event such a resounding success for the city, Deputy Lord Mayor Alderman Guy Spence, said, “It’s fantastic to see so many people and families out enjoying this spectacular evening of performance – such a feel-good event for the city. We wanted our Creative Belfast projects to highlight the importance of the arts in creating a colourful and vibrant city, and this event has certainly done that.”
“Creative Belfast is the first initiative of its kind. It represents the largest amount of project funding ever awarded by Belfast City Council and underlines the council’s strong, ongoing commitment to the cultural life of the city, and to promoting community engagement and challenging social exclusion by engaging Belfast’s diverse people and communities in culture and arts.”

This is the shell shown in my earlier pictures being put together. The only problem with this shell was that the first layer of composition on the outer petal stars was a dark comp. As seen from the video the outer petal stars were visable right from the begining of the shell break. It's time to find and test a different dark comp as this is more of a white than dark comp.

Texas added some pyrotechnics to the pre-game introductions last night and a D.J. throughout the game. It's probably the most energized I've seen the crowd in a few years, and that was just the first home game of the year!

Doesn’t it look like fireworks?
Thalictrum is a tall, willowy perennial that produces an abundance of fluffy mauve flowers on glistening black stems during the height of summer.
Meadow Rue is perfect for filling gaps in woodland gardens and shaded borders, particularly as the elegant foliage provides an ideal backdrop for smaller perennials.
The foliage of Thalictrum can be added to summer bouquets for a delicate touch.
Unbelievable, but a member of Ranunculaceae, the buttercup family, its common name is Chinese Meadow Rue.
Gorgeous leafage and pretty flowers, it loves moist but well drained soils.
It has lavender-purple flowers, each small flower is held high and is made up of tiny strands, like downy thistles, giving the plant a hazy, fluffy effect.
The foliage is scalloped and lacy looking.
In my garden, it is next to my Peonies.
So, more flowers from my garden...
Have a lovely day and thank you for your visit, M, (*_*)
