It's gone Bonfire Night and all is quiet.

And even though I don't particularly miss all the bangs that go with exploding fireworks, I do miss the amazing show of colours.

That's why I really like this image from Chris O'Reilly - it could be the afterglow of a particualrly big firework, instead of a clever take on some city streetlights. It's certainly got me going 'ohh' and 'ahh'.

City street light abstract.
