Boston Shoveler — Chris Laudani shovels the Boston Marathon Finish Line

During the 2015 Boston Blizzard, I photographed a man shoveling snow from the Boston Marathon finish line. The scene impacted me because I was near the finish line during the bombings. After taking the images, I uploaded them to Instagram. By next morning, the images were internationally famous.
