XSTEP : let's try it now...shifted the horizon clockwise a bit ( the central urn is settling to the left , its' been there for around 100 years or so ,was probably level when they put it in)

This shot was taken after the fireworks show was over, and they turned the lights to red.

Also, I just finished meeting with one of the volunteer administrators at the temple. He saw my pictures online and wants to use them for his report and their web site. There isn't any payment involved, but I don't mind in this case. As a member and treasurer of my own church, I know that churches depend on volunteerism and charity. I've taken a lot of photos at my church that have been used similarly, and I'm glad to volunteer my time and talents for such things.

The GREAT news is they're going to give me access to take pictures inside and during services and prayers. This is a minor dream come true because when I first visited the inside I was struck by how beautiful the architecture and lighting is inside. Being able to photograph it during services will be an awesome experience.

I'm not a big fan of extensive post-processing, but I feel this shot could benefit from a little work: to boost the red in that fantastic sky, straighten up the tower and bring a little more detail back into the shadows. The pic could have a lot more 'punch', I reckon...

I grew up in Labrador... and the northern lights were an almost nightly affair. I haven't seen them in such a long time so your photo evoked some really pleasant memories. THEN I noticed the dipper in amongst the dancers! This is such a nice "northern" shot. I've mentioned previously, you capture the colours of the north in such a great way and having that Alaskan scenery sure helps eh? Your composition is just spot on. Good on ya.

Thanks

Barry
