Fall Firework

A single large firework bursts against a black night sky, its gold sparks radiating outward in dense trailing arcs from a bright orange-and-white core, with a thin trail descending to a distant silhouetted mountain range and a small cluster of lit town windows below. The vertical composition centers the firework in the upper two-thirds, leaving the dark lower third for the horizon line and hillside settlement. "Fall Firework" is a mezzotint by Katsunori Hamanishi, 2018.
