Compositing An Explosion In Pietermaritzburg

So, I decided to blow up my home town just for kicks. The compositing is not perfect but then I only spent 10 minutes on it.

Greg And The Young Dutch Filly

I shot this video in The Netherlands in October 2006. Took me this long to put it up. I had to eventually. It was one of those moments that you are lucky to catch on camera
