Lonely Spectator

Every summer The Hague / Scheveningen hosts a magnificent 3 day event:

The International Fireworks Festival, a spectacular fireworks display that takes place on the Dutch Coast next to the pier in Scheveningen.

The International Fireworks Festival in Scheveningen draws approximately 150,000 visitors on the finale on saturday, so you could say it's pretty crouwded.

A fellow photographer friend and I went early to ensure a front row position.

But when the sunset display started I saw a guy annoyingly moving in the corner of my frame.

Instead of asking him to move out of my picture I invited him to come and stand right in front of my lens.

I'm glad I did, cause for me it adds to the result.
