The River Festival is such an important event in the Brisbane.

The Brisbane River runs through the heart of the city and is

an integral part of the city's identity. The River festival is

celebrated every year with a 10 day program that takes place

across various locations across the city. Programs range from

exhibitions, live musical events, theater performances and

sporting events.

The festivities get underway on the opening night with the spectacular fireworks display over the river.

in fact, this is my first time to use a canon DSLR, 350D, to shoot.

Also, it is my first experience in shooting firework show.

thanks for mimi to let me use the 350D...

lucky me...

I think I could only get 5 out 10 for those pics. But that is a wonderful experience for me.

I regard it as a kind of preparation for the SYD new year fire show.

Anyway, if people want to visit a boring city like Brisbane.

I do recommend to come during the river festival period.
