Thank you @Ssiddharth2000 I took the pics from home some 5 km away from the heart of the fireworks in Melbourne’s CBD. Given that I simply used my cellphone, the pictures are pretty good really. Well they do show the nature and extent of the fireworks :smile:

Haha @WilfriedB yes it’s an old song. I mean just look at the outfits and the sound track. I used this once before but chose it again because of the words in the song.

Thank you @ShailendraOjha. I have to say that I’ve never had the Dry Fruit Besan Laddoo. It looks and sound interesting but for the 100% Pure Ghee! Isn’t Ghee simply butter?

Thank you @Peadar for your wishes and kind words of appreciation. I have to admit, sadly like you I’ve broken every single New Year’s resolution I’ve ever made LOL. As I mentioned above, I took the pics from home some 5 km away from the heart of the fireworks in Melbourne’s CBD. We were at a party and I didn’t have my bigger camera but anyway, given that they were taking using a cellphone, the pictures are pretty good really. Well they do show the nature and extent of the fireworks.
