Photo of the Day
A Controlled Spin
“This is me swinging a string of glow sticks with burning steel wool at the end,” Chris Matthew Brady writes of this self-portrait he took at Coronado Beach, California. “The best part was the audience reaction. There were a bunch of kids on the beach, and their oohs and aahs made me think of firework shows when I was a kid.” This photo was submitted to Your Shot, our photo community on Instagram.
