Nice fireworks on WDR Köln... of course along with the backdrop with Cologne Cathedral.

By the way, the streaming technology has come a long way. I remember the times when a Cologne based radio station Radio Köln I have been listening alongside to WDR's live feed was behind the WDR over half a minute etc... now the lag was barely noticeable. In fact I've begun noticing for example in the case of our public broadcaster ERR of web stream being ahead of DTT one time.

What a fantastic display from WDR Koln. The whole city is twinkling from fireworks :)

Still going strong in Koln.

Much longer than at the Brandenburger Tor.

I like the way they space the fireworks out well to cover the city and cathedral. It seems to be a unique way of doing it.
