Free Black Backgrounds: 48 Dark Photos of Fireworks, Lights and Objects on Black
48 free black backgrounds from the BigFoto library: real photos in which black fills most of the frame, picked by measuring the dark pixels of every photo. There are white firework streaks and golden sparks on black, coloured bursts over a dark lake, shooting stars and chains of lights, light trails and motion blur, glowing pyramids on a lake at night, the light at the end of a tunnel, the moon in a dark sky and lightning at night, and bubbles, a crystal, a wine glass, a golden ornament and a dried plant on black. The dark space leaves room for white or coloured text.
How to download: click a photo to see it large, then use Download. The originals are about 1200 × 800 pixels: right for blog posts, slides, social media, school projects and video call backgrounds.

Questions about these black backgrounds
Can I use these black backgrounds for free?
Yes, for personal and commercial projects. All we ask is a link back to BigFoto.com; the box at the top of the page has a credit link you can copy.
Are these plain black images?
No. They are real photos where black fills most of the frame, with fireworks, lights, the moon or a small object as the subject. For a plain black fill, a solid colour in any image editor does the job; these add something to look at while still leaving dark space for text.
