Thanks William! #4384067Dan E. June 10, 2007
Nicely done Paul #4384467Paul Goodman June 10, 2007
Thanks Dan! #4384901I'm sweating just looking at that picture. I just hope it wasn't your house that was on fire.
Is this a picture of a forest fire? Are you a fireman or just happened to be on scene?

Kirk, the picture was a Photo shoot that I took at a training burn held at the Airport firefighter training center in Lexington, KY. the set up is a mock plane fire and students have to extinguish the fire. I am a firefighter which allows me to get some great Fire scenes as well as training shots. being a firefighter does have its advantages in getting close to the scene and training.Sharon King June 13, 2007

Congratulations on POTD Paul, great image #4523556Nancy Donnell July 18, 2007
congratulations Paul! An image like that is so impressive. Nothing I could ever witness. (Hopefully, since I am not a firefighter.) I had a technical question. Did you apply a lot of blur to the water from the hose, and have to do much work in PS after the taking the shot? And thank you for being a firefighter. I can't imagine what that must be like. #4523852Patricia Ronan July 18, 2007
