Firework and smoke spewing dragon

These are the Diables d’Igualada, who put on an exciting and colorful daytime fireworks display in the Catalan section of the Smithsonian’s Folklife Festival.

This dragon was pretty spectacular, spewing fireworks from its mouth and purple smoke from its tail.

A final VIDEO of the dragon shot by Tim is at http://vimeo.com/278852216
