Fantastic! I love the dark, starry sky over-laid by the flames & flying spark trails. The shafts of light from the fire leaking through the holes in the piled stones are a nice touch to give some dimension to the dark foreground. Very well done!

I agree with Royce -- the shafts of firelight projecting between the stones are a very nice touch!

Almost makes me wish I was tenting again - nah, I guess not.

However, this image is very effective, and portrays the mood very well.

The spark trails are definite positive imo. Now that brings back memories - as kids we' push a long stick into the fire to get it glowing, then twirl it quickly to "write" in the darkness. Cool.
