In Barcelona every year they hold this crazy festival which is not very well known to tourists. To sum it up, it's a religeous festival that involves a lot of fireworks and very little protection or rules on health and safety. If you look at this photo carefully you will see that a lot of people are just wearing t-shirts and no protection. Being a tourist and not knowing anything about it, I was also wearing a t-shirt and had no head protection. Nonetheless, I got in there and took this photo at night on my Nikon F3 with Kodak film. No flash and definitely no tripod. I honestly thought I would burn to death as I walked away with burns on my arms and face. My t-shirt and jeans were ruined.
