POTW 03-01-2017

Each week, one of the moderators or administrators selects an image that, for whatever reason, catches their eye. Please feel free to add your comments here. Vigorous discussion of the images and techniques is welcome and encouraged. Criticism of any mod for their choice is not. Please note that this is "Picture of the Week"; do not confuse that with "best picture of the week", which is a concept of which we have no understanding.

First POTW of the year goes to biggerry for this stunning NYE fireworks image. Lots to see here, detail upon colourful detail and immaculate tecnique, as we've come to expect from Gerry. This is fine photography.

An excellent and obvious choice. A real firecracker of an image, if I may say so. :)
