18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest The American Experience
Boom

Sometimes explosives celebrate the 4th in their own way. Luckily the spectator had her guardian angel standing in front of her.I was photographing my wife popping fireworks on the 4th of July when one of the explosives got unpredictable. The camera was set to bulb and I was able to capture the moment. Luckily no one was injured!
