Good catch. I'm not crazy about the composition, e.g., seeing the soldier's back, but being able to see his earplug is a nice touch. I believe the explosive fire is real (great timing, as others have said), but it sort of looks like it was added in post processing.


Oh no! I did not add it! I may have over use the recuperation tool (and the vibrance) while converting from raw, I wanted to have as much details as possible instead of a white blah. I am not quite use to it. I did not have much time to fine tune my exposition choices on the spot. Here is the original version in JPG (I shot raw + jpg).

I usually reserve my high scores for a great capture of many elements important to photography or for an artistic appeal that moves me. However, this gets a 9 for capturing a great shot on the first firing (unless I find out that this was the 29th time they were doing the 21 gun solute ;-) ) Only question, where's the projectile? Sorry, bad joke.
