A few photos from Les Grands Feux du Casino du Lac-Leamy (Day 3)

Day 3 of Les Grands Feux du Casino du Lac-Leamy took place this past Saturday and I was there taking photos. Having covered many of the “things” at the festival on Day 1, I decided to concentrate on the performers on the various stages and, of course, the fireworks. Oh hey, remember the undersea diver and mermaid act that I posted a couple of pictures of in my post about Day 1? Well, they were still there and I took this photo when the undersea diver was peering into my camera:

Nah, not creepy at all. Smile

The team from Pyro Spectaculars represented the United States with a show featuring music by The Beatles. Here are a few photos from their show. Like Day 1, the wind wasn’t cooperating at some points meaning there was a fair bit of smoke between the fireworks and the crowd, as you can see in some of the photos. Still, the show was pretty impressive and the crowd seemed to enjoy it.
