Burst of colour against night air

A single streak climbs upward before it splits into light. The explosion opens like a flower, thin lines bending outward, each one tipped with colour—violet, red, green, a brief order made from chaos. Smoke spreads behind the burst, glowing faintly in the heat. The sky itself turns soft where the brightness fades.
It’s a photograph that catches both violence and calm. The centre burns white, too bright to stare at, yet the edges move gently, curling in slow arcs before disappearing. The dark space around holds the light still, turning it into a shape instead of a flash.
After the first impression, the firework becomes less about spectacle and more about form. The burst settles into rhythm, each spark echoing another. It’s a moment that has already ended, but the colour stays, lingering like a sound that refuses to fade.
