This night-shot was taken on December 7th, 2019 in Amsterdam, the capital of my small country (The Netherlands) on the occasion of the light festival, edition # 8 there (version 2019/2020 with the central theme 'Disrupt!').

There are 20 artworks shown on this festival. This one, called 'Big Bang' was created by the Taiwanese artists of the collective UxU Studio.

Information/description provided by the festival committee: according to the artists of the collective UxU Studio, there's nothing that symbolizes disruption more than an bomb. Their illuminated bomb hangs threatening in the air, as thought it's about to hit the water (or maybe even a passing boat). Those who come closer will also discover something surprising about the artwork: it's covered in soft feathers!

Wow! This looks so futuristic! Is this a fish rocket or I only imagine the things? Great capture, Cornelius.

A bomb covered with soft feathers ! Lot of work involved in creating this "beautiful bomb" and it suits the theme "Disrupt" perfectly.

It's Led Zeppelin playing a reunion in Amsterdam . No...wait, that's not Led Zeppelin! Maybe a School of boga fish. Whatever. But Mr C, what a picture you captured here. :)

This is amazing! Mr. C. you did a great job on this one, I can't imagine the time it took to create this one. Very different, and very unique.

I liked Raj's and John's remarks SEA. They both made sense and made me smile. At first I thought it was fish then realized it was feathers. It fits both Global Warming, World Peace and Feed The Hungry movements.
Your shot made it possible for us to let our imaginations run wild. Well done. Have a good weekend.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Very well suited to the theme and also quite beautiful in it's own right - the feathers make it quite unique Mr. C.
