Nice shot BUT, this is a challenge about fireworks and it took me a good 3-4 seconds to actually find the firework in this shot, that sky is just WAY to prominant and dramatic and attention stealing for this challenge in my opinion. I went so far as to knock off a point cause of that but just 1. I do like the shot though but again, the sky just looks too wierd for me. Don´t know cause it´s from long exposure movement or some wierd filter you put on it in post processing but it´s just not to my taste. I do like the use of purple vs. orange. Bottom line is I voted 6.

Congrats on top 5 Justin. It would be nice to see some data on this. We don't know ISO, aperture, shutter speed, or any processing details, and that is very frustrating. In particular, is the lightning added to the shot?
