In this week’s seasonal fun link, we take a look at Japanese fireworks, hanabi. While watching a show from afar have you ever wanted to learn more about how fireworks are made in Japan?

Check out Japan-Fireworks.com, a vast visual guide to everything about hanabi technology. It answers many questions such as “How are Japanese hanabi different?” The English version of the site hasn’t been fully renewed since 2006, but the original Japanese page run by Onozato Kiminari (aka “the hanabi guy”), a professional photographer, is still going strong. His gallery of photos is amazing, so do not miss it after you’ve learned about the three different types of hanabi.
