Oh my God....absolutely magic, the so many fireworks in long exposure left a GREAT background for the building and that red light that hit it makes a really unique result, excellent also about the architecture subject but most of all...again a long exposure without noise.
I love all these actions into a so .....'unmoved' subjecxt like the building. I like a lot that contrast of motion - action and freezed things.
Best regards!

A most beautiful fireworks photo, Ameed! You were fortunate to have a scene where you could include some interesting elements other than just the fireworks.:)

Very nice image and stunning view my friend. The horizon line, though, (to my eye) is off center . . . which is why the tower leans to the right. I recommend you tilt it back. Other than that . . . this is a stunning image!

Hey there!

Im sorry that i didnt get the chance to comment on your recent work. i have been out of town for the past 5 weeks.

I really like this shot, and i totally know how hard it is to capture fire works in perfect shot.
the only things which i find out of Proportion is the angle of the building, which i now know the reason to it after reading your replies.

Other than that all is Superb! it would work great as a postcard :)

Many thanks for your comments on my photos, much appriciated!

Regards,
Z.S

Wenta tyeb ya gameel :)
Well I knew of this issue before for sure, and I kind of like it allot actually, it adds an artistic touch, this is why I left it without fixing it.
But to answer your question, yes, there is many utilities and tools to fix the inclination in Wide angle shots, there is also lots of plug ins for PS to fix that problem.
But for me .. why to fix it when it looks cool ;)
I am not aware of those utilities names, as I never used one before, but I am sure googling it will get you tons :)
Thanks dear for your kind comment,
Cheers,

Must have been great to see them live Ameed, but you've captured the dramatic fireworks very well for the rest of us.

Thanks allot Saeed for the Explanation, I thought to leave the inclination to add more flavor, now thanks to you I know it shouldn't be there,
I really appreciate the time and effort you’ve put to critique, I would give you the best critique award if it was up to me,
Thanks once again and much appreciated,

Hi, Ameed
In photography Biz there are 2 kind of works, one as a photojournalism type which you actually do not care to change a lot apart from crop or resize, other is as for art, exhibition or final selling where a fine work and touch should be done, your final result is for attractive art work, where many adjustment should be applied and believe me many of non experience say that it should not the work be altered, but that is not the case for experienced photographers most of them do.
Although you know the principle of shooting vertical elements with w/a lens that to avoid putting such subject close to the frame where the inclination can be noticed, if not an editing tool like PS can do the work for you unless you do want the inclination for artistic look.
Here I applied the transform tool (distort) to correct the tower inclination. (attachment)

Thanks allot Saeed for your kind comment, it is highly appreciated,
I am not sure why but I feel that the Wide angle effect is not well received, in spite of not being done digitally, and it is a lens effect that I can’t control, would you please be kind enough to tell me what do you think about that,
Thanks in advance, regards,
Ameed

Work of consistent vision, highly refined technique and a determination to get the very best out of any photographic situation that present itself as this occasion.
A part from the effect of wide angle on the tower I think it’s a fine technique used.

Thanks Roberto for your kind comment it is much appreciated,
The inclination in the picture is due to the wide angle effect of the lens, check the little tower in the right; you will find it inclining a little to the left.
Thanks once again,
