Hi, I'm just rewriting one of my old screenplays. It's about a group of heroes who avoided a nuclear war the villain wanted to start. Here's what I wrote as the last scene:
Tom takes a deep breath of clean air. The sky was supposed to be ripped apart by the lights of trillions of atomic bombs.
Instead, the fireworks paint a beautiful, multicolored picture on this black canvas.
I just want to show the contrast between the lights caused by the nuclear bombs, and the lights of fireworks..
Could you please tell how to do this? How to convey this idea/image? Thank you for reading this!:)

Don't mean to be rude but fantasy don't lend...just use yours boosted by some similar scripts you'll find describing nuclear holocaust in the making...

Tom takes a deep breath of fresh, uncontaminated air, looks skyward, anticipates the calm night ripped apart by the blinding illumination of countless nuclear warheads. Nothing. A moment passes. A single firework ignites, falls to earth. Tom squints with confusion. The team exchange puzzled expressions, their heads raise once again to the mysterious sky.
Then.... without warning, a nonstop bursting of joyous explosion paints a beautiful, multicolored picture on the night's black canvas.
