Im curious about aluminium:

Fine flake could be dark aluminum as wellbut I can't see it leaving that tail.

So it's around a ½" star? Awesome!

Would you share the size?

 

Typically the bright flake stuff used in pyro is passing 45µm/325mesh, but there is also much larger stuff up to 2000µm that looks nearly identical.
