This is the scene of a mayor explosion that happened yesterday in Gibraltar! An oil storage tank exploded in the port of Gibraltar yesterday afternoon, just metres from where a cruise ship was berthed.
The explosion blew the lid off the tank and sent a fireball high into the air. The buckled steel lid lay on the quayside on the Western Arm metres away from the tank, indicating the force of the explosion.The site is an ex-Mod sullage plant (Oil treament plant) but now belongs to a local company. It is situated on what we call the North Mole.
During the Orionids major meteor shower this year, I photographed this meteor exploding as it entered Earth's atmosphere. You'll notice an interesting shift in color as the meteor entered the atmosphere (right to left), then the explosion near the far left. Many factors influence the colors, including the chemical makeup of the meteor as well as its speed. Generally, the green was the magnesium that was being burnt off and the yellow and orange were likely Iron and Sodium.

These 5 photos (1st-5th explosion) were captures while in video mode on my Fuji Finepix 5100 camera. The explosions were caused by the U.S. Navy Explosive Ordinance Demolition (EOD) team. They came out to destroy some potentially dangerous naval rounds from WWII. The rounds were in about 8 ft of water. The explosion went about 15 ft into the air.
