Description
Fireworks, for most whom I've met, are fun to watch, and especially exciting to see up close and in person. Most of the images captured at one of these fireworks shows seem celebratory and happy. This shot however, that I took when in Boston for that particular year's Fourth Of July fireworks show, just looks ominous to me. The way the fireworks were captured in the image looks like the top of a skull with creepy-looking eyes bulging out of each eye-socket with hundreds of light tentacles exploding in all directions. To complete the ominous feel, the light from mortar shells as they are being launched at the bottom of the image coupled with the reflection in the riven (just below) looks like a white bow tie being worn by a well-dressed skeleton or other monstrous sort of a being.
But then when I'm not seeing dark and evil creatures in this image the shape of the "head" and the "eyes" remind me of a Simpsons character. I leave it to you to decide what you think it looks like. Maybe its just some cool fireworks exploding in the night sky on a clear 4th of July evening.
