You may be a skilled and imaginative photographer, but I for one wouldn't hire you as a bomb technician - You're cutting the blue AND the black wire! For shame! :D

Nice job rigging up such a fine and convincing explosive.

nice idea. seems like the time piece could have been an oppurtunity to add a bit of hurried feel to the image by setting the clock to 9 seconds before 12...perhaps it was broken, at which point it would be probably safer to not mess with the wires ;)

Cool photo, more compelling than most. I'm distracted by the model rocket motors that clearly are not that explosive.

Awesome idea, and I believe your right. Red and your dead. Blue, make it through.
