 Every year here in Welshampton we have a themed bonfire that with a performance and music to tell a story.
This was the train was the main feature of the story of a railway built 150 years ago that went through the village.
Unfortunately as the performers are off the train at this point you don’t get the scale of the bonfire but it was around 40 feet high and, also you can’t really see on this image but the wheels were turning!
Don’t think this will do to well but as I was involved (in my own small way) in putting on this event I felt this just had to go in…

This photo was taken in Southeast Asia, right? Korea? China? Actually, I'm trying to guess the flag. :)

Nice shot but if you used longer exposure to capture the fireworks the picture would have a greater impact.

The negative space seems like it should be a bit different, but other than that this is an absolutely stunning image.
