Fireworks over our house

    Newer Older

    The skies were clear and the moon was shining on New Years Eve...
    Komi þeir sem koma vilja Come those who wish to come
    Fari þeir sem fara vilja Leave, those who wish to leave
    Mér og mínum að meinalausu Without harm to me and mine
    trad. poem said in every room on new years eve, the traditional moving day of the elves.

      ** This was voted a HIT from Hit, Miss, Maybe, WHY? ** The muted navy of the sky and olive of the grass are fabulous details to a great New Year's photo. Happy 2007!

      I like the kind of 3-part composition. The earth, then the house, and the sky with the fireworks. Very cool.
      I also like how the slope of the land almost converges with the house off center, but then it's messed up with the explosion overhead. Really cool.

      This picture doesn't appear to conform to any of the rules of what makes good composition yet it is really exciting. A collage of different types of lighting.
