Well, 4AM rolls around a little too quickly for my liking. My niece and I arrived at the best viewing site at 5AM. With my lack of low-light photography experience, the photos are simply snapshots of a relatively historical event. Here they are in a pretty accurate chronological order.
Arrival 5AM. Got the last parking spot within walking distance (3 blocks).
This is my last panorama of the Interbelt Bridge before it was leveled.
There was a kind of a party atmosphere, though filled with anticipation of not knowing what to expect.
The plan was to implode the bridge at "dusk". I learned that "dusk" is not necessarily "sunrise". Today, dusk was 6AM.
Calm anticipation. 10... 9... 8... 7... 6...
5... 4... 3... 2... 1
