" BANG ", a photo from Southern Islands, Central

Photographer's Note

Why am I posting this one?
Cause I like the colors and the lines...

I had showed up a bit too late to get a decent spot at the fireworks on Sunday. So there I am trying to find somewhere, ANYWHERE, I can set up my tripod to capture them. But sure enough- I ended up stuck right in the middle of crowd of people when they began. I had no other choice but to point my camera skyward- without tripod- and try getting it freehand.

Slight cropping, and curves (PS)

The fact you had no tripod gives a surrealist touch to your photo, and that's what I like, Dan !
Magical colors.

I like the colors and lines too Dan ... you have done a good job even without the tripod. Thanks for sharing.

You really must use that tripod next time....

wow, I hadn't seen this one before. Good rich composition. very good exposure, looks almost like a modern art drawing. it is not overdone in anyway. it's beautiful. I think the lack of tripod appears mainly in the bunch of curvature that appears in the tiny little lines.
cheers,
Behrang
