Although a lot of fireworks happened last night, at least up here in Oxford, there are a few folks doing it right - on November 5th. If you are up for a night of photographing fireworks, and in one case a lantern parade, here are two Guy Fawkes events to check out:

Southwark Fireworks at Greenland Dock

The beautiful lantern parade will be accompanied by a street band and costumed performers. After the parade comes the fireworks, fired from a floating platform on Greenland Dock, sure to be a magical November 5th night out.
