Hi Rusian,

nicely exposed with strong colours. The fellow photographer adds to the compo, geves a nice sense of scale.

Greetings from The Netherlands,

Hi Nazir,

I had a look through your gallery and this photograph stands out from the crowd.
I'm not sure i agree with the comment about the people in the foreground, i think it gives a good sense of scale and adds to the POV. The reflection in the pol of water is lovely as is the perspective and balance.
All together a very nice shot, hope you don't mind, i added a workshop as there is a slight tilt in the picture which to my eye was a little off putting.

Thanks for posting.
Kind regards
Colin

Hi Trudy,

first attempt, and i think you pretty much nailed it. The flares on the moon fit in nicely with the burst of the fireworks.
Nice colours well done.

Kind regards
Colin

Hoi Anneke,

erg nabij, goeie close up leuke lens, netjes hoor :)

Heb je goed voor mekaar gekregen om zo dichtbij het vliegje te komen zonder te storen en dat 'ie weg vliegt.

mvg

Hi Martin,
welcome to TL,
lemme give you my 2 cents on this.

Technically, the foreground is kinda dark, but i guess it works with the lit trees in the background, might have been better if the foreground was a little brighter.
The trees in the background are a little out of focus. I imagine this is due to your f/stop setting when taking the picture. f2.8 will give you a shallow depth of field, in this situation i would me more inclined to go for f7.1 or maybe f8 or so as this will keep the background crisp as well.
The sky is good in this nice colours.
