About this picture

Accompanied by family members to celebrate Australia Day in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory in 2010, I had set up below the southern end of the Commonwealth Avenue Bridge next to Lake Burley Griffin to photograph the evening fireworks. This shot was an 8 second exposure, and a boat just happened to come slowly into the frame during the exposure and set off a red flare. It is almost completely unedited in post. I love the contrast of the deep night sky in the top right and the red flare reflecting off the bottom of the bridge.
