Balloon Festival Fireworks

Albuquerque, NM

Another one of the displays from the last "After Glow" fireworks show from the 2013 Albuquerque International Balloon Festival.
The diffraction spikes from the portable field light on the lower left of the fireworks are from the stopped-down 16-35 f2.8 lens,
just in case you were wondering if I was being creative in Photoshop.

Quite a unique capture here, Sam! The large circle with the smaller bursts reminds me of a flower, and the bottom one a palm tree ;-). Outstanding work as always. V.
