Greetings from England

If you would like to see the New Years Eve display in London (England) that Groupe F did then here it is. The wheel in the background is the London Eye, website also linked...

From TV to video, so quality not so good... :)

Thanks...

It is a truly fantastic display that Groupe F did, they had 19 barges on the river Thames in the centre of London, it took 6 days to set up... The mines and single shot candles on the wheel are stunning :)

Thanks for sharing this one, it's a really impressive show !

A really great display, especially the candle-sequences with "the eye" are great. The final bang with masses of salutes is also enormous. BUt what i like the the most is the vast extraordinary use of mines and single shots throughout the whole show.

With a display of this size i would have liked to see some more variation in shell effects andd maybe in de normal candles setups. For example Z shapes or big step by step sequences. But these are tiny details in show that is really great.....

By the way, the other videos and pictures on you site are great too. I'm downloading them all right now;-)

Thank you very much for sharing this.
I already saw parts of the show on tv, but didn’t see the entire thing.

I do not particularly like Groupe F, because in my opinion they use too much of the same effect and provide too little variation. However, it was a massive display and as the commentator also said the London Eye makes for a perfect piece to setup fireworks. Everytime that I see this landmark I’m a little proud, because it was erected with pistons made in my hometown.
