Bonfire night is not until the 5th, but usually the event usually happens on the nearest weekend, thus, happening today.

We call it caveman TV sometimes. Can just sit there and stare at it

Caveman TV, I like it!

I love bonfire night. Controversial opinion but it's way better than Halloween.

Less commercialising, more burning stuff

[–] Dis32@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Not controversial, most definitely better 💯

The nearest Saturday to November fifth would be the 8th this year.

When I was a kid we'd run around for the month before. Then the older kids would light it prematurely till we learned not to build it till the 5th. Less awesome fire but did the job

Beautiful contrast. What camera was used, if you don't mind?

I just used my phone camera, to be honest I didn't know what I was doing when I took the picture, messed around with the Pro feature on the camera and hoped for the best 😂 my phone is Motorola G55, nothing too fancy 😅

e.e"

But thanks! Been a while since I used a Motorola. I'll keep it in mind, if I turn picture taking into a proper hobby.
