Campbells Cove, Vivid Sydney, FireDance

This show on the wharves around Campbells Cove at The Rocks was a spectacle of dancing fire and music, during the Vivid Sydney festival. "FireDance" was created by Australian pyrotechnics company Howard & Sons, which has produced some of the world's most memorable fireworks shows since 1922. The show involved 40 firejets, that flare and flame in a choreographed balletic performance to the Stravinsky's classical "Firebird Suite" and Katy Perry's pop hit "Firework", remixed by Peewee Ferris.

  3. Your Vivid photos have been great Jim. Really enjoyed seeing them rather than a 5 second piece at the end of the nightly news.

  10. Jim, you have done a really great job of recording the Vivid event. I was showing your shots to my hubbie last night so he understood what we were missing out on.
