Nice pics

Hello
Those are some pretty good pics of the fire. Was wondering if you had nemore that you could send me. Im a firefighter that was on scene. Your the only one so far that i've seen that has some good pictures of it. It would be great to let me know. thanks

thanks. lucky timing and a great camera make the shots. better than the crappy picture they put in the Daily Journal. I submitted one to them and got no response at all. shot about 50 or so all together. kept about 35 or 40 I think.

Sunday morning

pics

Lol... If you talking about the picture on the front page of mondays paper that was actually me spraying the blitz nozzle. But i do have to tell you the truth your photos should have been on the front, i like yours alot better. I mean show the actual smoke and flames not just a firefighter spraying water. Anyway i was at the fire department tonight and told them about how you had some cool pics and they were wondering if they could get some more if you had any. You would get paid for them of course, but its up to you. And one more thing, are you from Antigo? hopefully hear from you again. And Thanks.

ha ha, that's funny. I told a friend I thought that picture looked like a typical stock image; can't even tell who it is, where it is, or what department it's from. ;-)

I could print what I have on photo paper, but I'll need to grab another pack on the way home.

yes, I live right here in town, about four blocks from the station actually. I'll send you a note when I get them printed and we can decide when I could drop them off.
thanks

I kind of like this one the best. it shows how thick the smoke was, and yet sharp enough to be able to zoom in and see the detail on the side of the truck
