Not the greatest shots as i did'nt really do the event justice, more a record of the events, but spent last night in a field with a view of Didcot Power Station, got there around 01:00 and set up the camera and tripod ready for the demolition of the Cooling Towers , which eventually happened just on 05:00, quite surprised how quickly the towers came down from the 1st starting to fall only took about 10 secs and they were gone.
Shot in on a D300s with an old Sigma 70-300 in aperture priority. iso 320, f5.0, 195mm, 1/5sec

Iam no expert but the foreground looks dark and yet distracting. The sky looks flat with no detail of your obvious subject (the towers) doesn't work for me sorry.
