Render trials

My first idea was to look back at my precedent image, which was blue with patterns, created from looking through the windows, and to render my final image in this way.  But I decided that the blue colour didn't relate to my three words, even though it related to my precedent image.

Another idea was to make it a grey, grainy texture to represent the ash and harshness from an explosion (relating to my word exploding).  But I decided a better way to represent the word exploding was to make it orange/red and more full of life.
