Description
Camas Days Parade starts of with a big bang.
I was about 20 feet away from the muzzle when they set it off. I could feel my chest being compressed by the shockwave - exhilarating experience to put it mildly
as a side note, my ears rang for a little while after

No Quaker Oats? Lol. Great capture, Mike. I'm sure that thing WAS loud. I feel for those who manned the canons in war. I would guess many went home deaf as a post.

COOL! How far did the ball go?! LOL, just kidding. Nice capture but perhaps you should have worn ear protection.
