So I was invited out by my friend Shadi to see the Albuquerque Chaharshanbe Suri, which is the Iranian festival celebrating springtime and having to do with jumping over fire. From my understanding, jumping over fire cleanses you from the yellow, and makes you red... or rather if cleanses you of impurities and gives you warmth and energy. The rest of the festival is doing everything banned in Iran such as dancing, music, drinking, etc :)

I had an interesting time with my camera as it was dark (after sunset) with fast moving objects... so I took the opportunity to do some slow speed panning shots, and some came out in an interesting way! And yes, it's all at extremely high ISO (3200-6400)
