Huge
fireworks spectacular wows the crowds on Burnham seafront

Burnham-On-Sea's
carnival festivities got underway with a spectacular seafront
fireworks display on Sunday night (November 5th) watched by thousands
of onlookers.
The
display was unique this year as it was operated from a platform
on the seafront and, with a high tide at firing time, onlookers
saw a spectacular 20-minute display with the fireworks reflected
on the sea.
The
display was run by Bristol-based Skyburst, who also created specially
constructed fireworks that spin and explode in the sea itself.
The display featured a stunning finale when multiple shells rose
and break up in a sky-filling blaze of red and silver. See See
video footage from the sea here.
