Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July!
Digital Creation from several different images. Blackened out the city skyline from an old snap in the car that had poor quality. I took a couple of older fireworks images & mixed them with brushes to create the new fireworks.
Added layer styles & effects to create the colors & look of the fireworks. After about 2 hours & 25 layers worth of work this is the final product.

Happy 4th of July!
