You need to photoshop someone in to one of the windows.
 
Hi Steve,

I was going to ask you if you worked at UAMS, but I see in your last post, you posted a link to the story.

Nice shot.

I live in Conway by the way,
Jim

Building implosion at my work yesterday.

When the explosives went off I just held down the shutter of the
20D and fired away!

I bet that was noisy. I photographed a bridge implosion in Charleston, SC this Fall (was in city for vacation and heard about it on TV night before--lucked out by getting one of the best vantage points). I was standing on a floating dock at the Aquarium pier and fired away, as you did, with the 85 f/1.8. I put 5 of the best together for this.



and it was noisy enough. It was also like a big festival--seemed like most of Charleston was out there to watch the sight LOL.

Great capture. When you just held the shutter release in continus
mode had you prefocused with manual focus? Or full auto?

Aperture priority mode set to f7.1, ISO 200, prefocused using auto, continous drive.
I put the lens right up to the glass of the window as not to get a reflection.

Fun? What fun is shooting destruction?

Come on, try instead to protect the building, prevent the implosion, chain yourself to the steel beams, fight security and resist law enforcement -- now that would be something.
But to photograph it? So easy, so commonplace, so repulsive.
