There's also a photo - again widely distributed - of Trump with a smear assumed to be a bullet going past him. That is likely the second shot. The first shot hit his ear, causing him to respond by raising his hand toward his ear. Before he could get his hand all the way up from the podium, the second shot goes past him and is caught in the photo, which shows his hand not yet to his ear. - ptheland

That photo of the bullet in flight was simply an amazing photograph. Lucky, no way to plan it. I did wonder about the bullet trace though. The trace is about one foot long. The muzzle velocity of a .223 round varies by manufacture, bullet weight, ballistic co-efficient, barrel length but a chart shows 3,000 fps is a good average.

So a one foot trace would mean the camera's shutter speed was 1/3000 of a second more or less or if video, 3000 frames a second. Pretty fast unless you are doing slow motion photography in a controlled environment. Why would a reporter be using such a fast shutter speed at this sort of event.
