For every Renderosity member here. The head office of the Metro Council of Tshwane was imploded today at 12 o'clock midday,today. I came earlier to work and were on the boiler house roof at 11:55. I were not able to catch a capture of the immediate action of the implotion,but took captures moments after the implosion where one are able to se smoke and dust rising into the sky in between the city sky scrapers.I share some captures as seen from my work atop the boiler house roof.The first picture is a view of Munitoria which i captured on camera on the 2nd of May 2013.

Blessed day and weekend.

God bless.
