 There's a place up the road called Romantic Village. It has a spa, swimming pool, huge glass house, strawberry houses, walking tracks, fruit and flower market, beer hall ... well, lots of things. In September, they have two fireworks shows. I missed the second one, but the first one featured a new kind of shell (to me), the one that produces the dotted lines in the photograph.
This is one of the photos where I held my hand in front of the lens to get a couple of different explosions in the one frame, hence the 7.7 seconds reading.
