I had held off purchasing any Super Bowl LVIII collectibles or memorabilia until I found something that I thought was just “awesome”. When I saw this SI Cover, I knew I had to have it. Honestly it’s one of the best photos I’ve ever seen. Along with the captions it captures what Super Bowl LVIII was all about. Your Photog was in the right place at the right time and did a great job of capturing what Chiefs fans all across the country felt at that moment. As you can see I had the perfect place for it, it makes this wall complete and up to date.

Artist's Description
I am calling this photo "Fortified Defiance" as a tribute to the 35 people that lost there lives on May 9, 1980, as a ship called the Summit Venture tapped one of the main support for one of the twin spans of the bridge, bringing it all down at the mouth of Tampa bay. This new bridge is fortified to prevent this from happing ever again. There are reinforce islands around the main supports and reinforced bumpers that guard it all from disaster. Yes the new bridge is beautiful, but it also stands in "Fortified Defiance" against disaster!!!!
About Marvin Spates
Hi my name is Marvin Spates, and I am a fine art photographer. I love shooting landscape and nature photos. I am a resident of the Tampa Bay area.

There is tons of variety in the things that I like to shoot. Something new that I have added is digital textures and painterly effects. I...
