Historical Signifigance; This is one of the more widely recognized photographs taken during the air raid at Pearl Harbor 7 December 1941. Interestingly, a lot of people I know incorrectly believe that the photograph shows the explosion of the battleship
USS Arizona, so I hope if this gets featured that the correct information regarding the ship in the photograph will get out to the general public.
Strong support Grrrrrrrr. I was planning to nominated that pic...that's why I added it to the pearl harbor page. But you beat me to it! =) Very encyclopedic and clearer than the other
FPC with a similar theme. The only problem I had with the pic was that the palm tree in the foreground is blurry...but I like how it kinds of frames the pic so there there isn't empty space in the sky.

Sorry. I didn't mean to beat you to the punch (although I do believe that this proves the age old theroy that he who hesitates is lost :)

Support Great shot. Extrodenary really, it must have been taken a second at most after the explotion started and yet it has foreground framing and is exposed well. Either a very luck shot or someone who took a morning stroll to maybe snap a few shots of a massive supprise military attack. -

Support. Unique. Some dust and scratch removal would be nice, but not too much! --
