No reason to feel humble (although I admit I'm humbled when I see such
fine exhibition grade work).
The "brown" you refer to in the other photo doesn't seem brown to me.
It looks like a "reddish gold" charcoal or lampblack star but doesn't
show much of a fat fire-dust trail on the time exposure. I must agree
with you that it looks pretty lame in combination with the blue and
silver (white aluminum). The blue and the silver look "right" so I
don't think the photo was modified much, if at all. I don't know what
it was supposed to be or why it was used.
It's hard to judge with time exposures. They can make a mediocre or
poor shell look good since even a simple color star becomes a "streak"
instead of a separate ball of flame. Time exposures can also show a
flaw in a shell which would be missed in a video. Some of the stills
on the "36 Arts" site and some other sites show shells with such
perfect color change sequencing that it's frightening.
