You never know when something is gonna happen. One day while still working my day job, a coworker ran in and told me that a chemical plant exploded a short ways from my office. Luckily my then boss was very understanding and I grabbed my camera and left:

Yep, the whole shabang! I was stoked of course although prolly only five people on the planet read this particular magazine....:lmao:
It was surreal. Upon each explosion, I could feel and smell my hair literally melt.
They didn't tell us until later that this chemical plant was medical. You wouldn't believe the stuff that was being mixed by the explosions. I was pretty sick for a few days afterwards. I had the worst headache of my life for two straight days.
Thanks for the kind words!!!!!!!

Ah yes. Small price to pay to have the photos published. That's a little morbid, but you get my drift. Personally I was promised a double truck once. Never got it. The details of that battle are better left unsaid.
