Fireworks in Linz

I love fireworks, and so I seldom miss an opportunity when there is a Firework in Linz to take some pictures of It. But This year I probably will see only very few fireworks because most of them are canceled because of the Covid-19 Pandemic. Fireworks in Linz are most of the time part of a special event or a festival and since all these festivals are canceled this year I assume there will not be any fireworks. Because of security reasons most of the public fireworks in Linz take place directly obove the danube, so they don't risk burning or igniting some fire on the ground.

Nice fireworks in Linz. Picture: Florian Glechner.

But I also know all the fireworks are really bad for the environment and also a lot of animals and birds are really afraid of the explosions and this makes me a bit sad and think about the need of fireworks. Ok they are beautiful and a lot of people enjoy them, but we should not be so selfish and only think about us.

I like the different colors of the explosions. Picture: Florian Glechner.

With different exposure times I can create different shapes of the explosions. Picture: Florian Glechner

Some explosions only exist of one color, others have a lot of different colors. Picture: Florian Glechner.

I like the fireworks in combination with the bridge and the bright buildings. Picture: Florian Glechner.
