good use of light, black and white works well with this composition. I really like this photograph, very well done.I think the photo is at least a 9

Even though this is B&W, I still got a festive feel from it (and enjoyed it a lot).

I like this one too. I hope it will do really well. Good luck!

Black and white! A genius idea.. 9

another B/W, great job with exposure and composition

Well if I have ever seen a b/w photo of fireworks that works, this is the closes to it. Still think I would have liked it better in color but this is not half bad, that church is always gloomy and dark no matter what a photographer does with it :)

Very nice. I like the inclusion of people and the building - adds a lot of life to the shot.

Þessi mynd fékk hæstu einkunn frá mér á LMK.. get reyndar ekki gefið henni einkunn hér en hvað um það, myndi fá mína hæstu einkunn hér líka sýnist mér.

Fantastic exposure and composition. Very lively and well done photograph!

I wouldn't have thought I'd like a fireworks shot in B&W, but I do!

The exaggerated "lean in" works well here, as does the softening effect of the smoke haze. Like the motion blur of the characters in the foreground.

So cool - sort of looks haunted. Love the drama of this shot. Back to bump you up to 9. Adding to favorites - the shot just rocks! In my top three for the challenge.

What a beautiful image - Great chance turning it into a black and white but it really works. Almost makes it feel dated with the church just adding to it. My fav of the set - 10 (I think this is my first 10 vote!)

Nice composition and perspective.

Gets a 10 from me. I love this image, as there is such a lot happening. The church has been captured nicely, as has the sky. Well done.

havent seen so many of the others, but this were really good. different.

I think this would not have worked as well in full color... the way that you have it adds to the majesticness that the building / perspective portray. (hope that all makes sense)
Post actions
Very neat perspective - I really think color (at least for the fireworks) would have made this photo really pop!
Post actions
This is such a cool shot to look at. Very different from the average fireworks shot. This would be my top pick if voting.
Post actions
Powerful image, well done. 8 from me.
Post actions
That is flawless. I'm so pleased you did it in black and white. It lends a totally different take on it. Terrific perspective and I love the movement of the people. 10

Great photograph. Interesting.
Post actions
Nice capture, would have liked to see the color version of this one :)
Post actions
Kind of looks like white out spilled on a magazine picture. I like it a lot but the firework is not as cool as its surroundings. -8
