 Patriot's day reenactment in Concord, MA, USA. 70mm Zoom. I had a much nicer composition all set up and then they made me move about 1 minute before the firing since I was in the "line of fire"

Holy old school Batman. Okay, I must confess, I'm a History buff, so I'm alittle biased... Very cool shot!

A good solid image that is crisp, sharp and properly framed and composed - a technical success in every way. From an artistic standpoint, it is a very effective representation of historical reenactment. Rich detail is a plus even though the image is just slightly under exposed. A good entry into the challenge.
