Explosión y derrumbe de edificio en calle Salta al 2100 de la ciudad de Rosario, Argentina, acontecido el 06/08/2013 /// Explosion and building collapse in Rosario, Argentine, on August 6, 2013
The Pacific appears calm until you go to the beach. It's wild, untamed. In fact the wind blows so hard that at Andrew Molera State Park, which has one of the best beaches in Big Sur for surfing, it was as if someone was throwing sand at us at 50 mph. My wife and I could not even stand there for more than 5 minutes. Still, it was great watching explosions like these.
Amb l'intervalòmetre a 2.5seg/foto... Inmensa sort d'enganxar el punt crític de l'explosió. La següent imatge apunta al cel perquè la càmera va sortir volant enrere.
Imatge extremadament sota exposada perquè la idea era fotografiar la intensa flama del cohet Bondar en aquesta inexitosa prova motor.
Intervalometer at 2.5sec/photo and the fortune of grabbing the right split of time. The next photo aims at the sky due to the explosion that tossed tripod+camera away.

For this round of get pushed I was paired with the creative and funny jeezydeezy www.flickr.com/photos/47918941@N07/ I was excited to be her partner, since I had been admiring her shots already in this group.
I was first to give a challenge, and asked her to do a photo based on the word "explosion."
Wouldn't you know she sent that challenge right back at me! OK, fair is fair- it was a bizarre challenge and I deserved what I got...
I tried to figure out what to do, then saw some photos on flickr done with long exposure and zoom technique. This is basically when you set the camera to a couple of seconds exposure, then zoom in or out on your subject to get this crazy effect.
This photo was taken coming out of my neighbour's driveway walking out toward the road. They have a very dark wooded driveway, then the view across the sunny road is to wintry pampas grass. The grass in the light ended up making what I think looks like flames and sparks.
I shot this without a tripod, then went back later and used a tripod, because that's what you are supposed to do to prevent wiggly lines! The tripod shots were cool but they looked more like "heaven" than an explosion. So I am posting this one. I do believe that flames kind of blow around and curve a bit.
I like get pushed because it gets me to try new things. Curious to hear what people think- since this is way beyond what I usually post.
Hope my neighbours don't mind me blowing up their driveway while they are in the Caribbean!
Propane station explosion in Toronto, August 10, 2008. At the end of Gilley Road.
These were taken from the north east of the blast, at around 4:30am. There was a very loud sound of gas excaping almost like a jet engine starting. Tanks were still exploding every minute and I could clearly see large pieces of glowing red tanker flying 100 feet or more and landing in the lot and buildings to the north. Looking at these pictures I wonder if perhaps I was too close.

Grænavatn is an explosion crater--probably over 6000 years old--created by a volcanic eruption. It is some 150 feet deep, with dazzling green water due to thermal algae and crystals which absorb the sun. Unfortunately the green wasn't visible due to the lack of sun when I visited.

Of My Little Ponies. A giant pile of ponies were laying out for the kiddies at this pancake party I went to awhile back.
Blues Explosion (formerly The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and sometimes abbreviated JSBX) is a New York based band, made up of members Jon Spencer (vocals, guitar), Judah Bauer (guitar, vocals) and Russell Simins (drums).
Originally from Hanover, New Hampshire, Jon Spencer (born Jonathan) moved to Washington, DC where he fronted the band Pussy Galore. After that band's breakup, The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion formed in 1990 in New York City. Members played in bands including The Honeymoon Killers (not to be confused with the avant garde Belgian artists on the Crammed Discs label), Crowbar Massage, and Boss Hog prior to the formation of the Blues Explosion.
They signed to Matador Records shortly after and have gathered a large cult following.
While on tour in July 1999, the band's tour van was broken into in Vancouver, Canada. A large amount of gear, including several microphones, amps, compressors, and other equipment, as well as Spencer's original 1962 Moog Vanguard theremin, was stolen. None of the gear was ever recovered.
With the release of Damage in 2004, the band changed their name simply to Blues Explosion.
