My wife took this picture last night of me firing my '42 Ishvesk M38.
Check it out, and make sure to vote for it!
We had lots of fun with long shutters, Mosin Nagants, and .357 Magnums. :D

If she gets enough votes, it'll be published in JPG Magazine, which is one of the most popular international photography magazines around.

"Mosin Nagant M38 Muzzle-Flash" at JPGmag.com.
 
That is one awsome pic. Although, If I were a German soldier id know were to place my rounds.
 
In lol-speak:

Neeling: Ur doin' it rong. Srsly.

Ain'tcha s'pose ta have the OTHER knee on the ground?
 
Thanks for all the compliments, she appreciates them and the encouragement.
These pictures were taken with a 4-second shutter, 500 ISO, and she used a diffused flashlight to "paint" me after I fired the shot while the shutter was still open.

Forget the fireball, I want to know where you got that hat.

I bought the hat (it's a Henschel) in Gatlinburg on our honeymoon back in '03.

Very cool. Went to vote but they wanted me to sign up. I demurred.

That's unfortunate.... :(
All it takes is a few minutes to register, and JPGmag.com isn't a website that floods inboxes with junkmail or distributes addresses. Please register, and if you really like the photograph, mark as a favorite, and vote.

JPG Magazine selects which member photographs to publish based on votes-to-views. She's gotten more views for that picture than any of her other photographs, yet because nobody is voting it is ruining her shot at being published.... Lindsey is struggling to become visible as a professional freelance photographer, and JPG Mag has helped many photographers break out and get their work recognized. Hearing others honestly compliment her work encourages her to keep trying as it's very hard to make it as a pro photographer, but it takes more than compliments in that line of work.

This another site showcasing her work, and people can buy her prints there as well. She has most of her photo-manips there. Pixelhenge @ Imagekind

Anyways, here's some other pictures she took that day.
And a video of me night-firing my Norinco 213, the M38, and SLR-95.
