A few weeks ago I took some photos of the fireworks over the local speedway. All the parts of this image were taken on the same night, just not necessarily all in one shot. The speedway with the lights on is one shot. Each fireworks burst is a separate shot. The green one was pink, but I already had a pink so I changed the colour. The moon shot was taken looking in the opposite direction, but i thought it was a nice addition. There was a thunder storm in the distance behind the fireworks and I did manage to capture one lightening shot, but the pic looked a bit over the top (well more so) with it added.

Good idea combining the fireworks like that! The moon is a nice touch, but it seems to be a touch too large. Nice exposure on the lights in the stadium, too. The starburst pattern is great.

Thanks Avi and lavable. Yep the moon is out of proportion. It was shot at 200mm and all the rest at 70mm.

But thats what makes it dramatic. Dont change the proportion of the moon.

Fix the moon then sell the photo to the track owners. :)
