No idea. It looked pretty light from the way he was handling it, but I'm probably wrong.

List of reason to be thankful to them
1. EOD guys save lots of lives at the risk of their own.
2. I've seen them at work and they are put in more dangerous situations than regular army infantry.
3. They've given families at home to see their love ones returned to them alive.

Definitely, these guys are crazy. I'm glad we've been able to replace our guys with technology when it comes to getting close to the ordinance.

It's really rare you get to see such close-up photographs of these themes.. The light makes it look really deep and serious. It's such a wonderful capture though, you've got a real skill for dark shots. C:
