Happy 4th of July

Comment by Cory:
The fireworks look great. Too bad the foreground/city looks so bad in terms of processing. Just over-processed looking in general.

Next time, mask each separate from the other, and process independently.

Also a big issue is the firework bust in the building at the left hand side of the image. That's really really really distracting.

Overall though, I do have to say that the general composition is pretty strong, and with a bit more care in the processing, this could have been pretty stellar.

I love these creatures, but that shrub in the foreground is very distracting, but I guess if you got any closer maybe he would of come after you and eaten you alive ;---)
