The Enschede Disaster

Subject information: From this time on the police started to seal off the area, making it increasingly more difficult to get nearby.
This is the street where the big Grolsch brewery is located, it stands to the right, but because of the thick black smoke it cannot be seen. The Grolsch brewery is located very nearby ground zero and there was some serious danger that it would explode too, which would have yielded in an explosion that might have been much worse still than the ones from the fireworks factory...
Taken from: Deurningerstraat (some 150 metres from ground zero).
Time (approx.): 3:45 P.M.
Gear used: Olympus OM-4Ti + Zuiko 28mm F2
Exposure: +/- 1/500th sec. @ f4
Technical information: Nothing special
