I started it 3 days before the 4th. Then on the third, I lost time in the evening and saw Amazing Spider-Man. It was late, so I passed out. Then on the 4th, I had to get up super early to make a potato salad. Then I spent all afternoon with family. By evening, after the fireworks, I passed out again. Didn't even bother to finish since it was late. So, I finished it today when I had some free time.

As for the pic, I tried to play with lighting and highlights. The fireworks are providing it for the most part. Then I played with some firework making tutorials for Photoshop.

Basically, Anita used a portal to find a version of Raven that's a little more open minded, and is hanging with her. I was considering a naughty follow up scene if enough people post comments showing interest in that.
