The demo - I wanted the smoke, this was what I was trying to capture - I liked the idea that you could still see the crowd and read their banner. The guy with the flare was maybe 2 or 3 feet away - again deliberate, I wanted to get in as close as I could with the 21mm lens.

You have set a very high standard with these last few weeks' PAWs. The picture of the kids is not quite up to that standard. It is good, but just not as good as what you usually produce. The demo is a good shot again, although I would prefer a little less smoke so that the main body of the demo were more visible.
