    Yeah, they looked really "pumped up" for action, don't they! I laughed at the casual stance in the first shot, while I was expecting some "action" shot! Good thing you stayed out of their way, Boogie! :D

    Thanks all! A little excitement and a camera. That works for me.

    Anyways it was only a couch on fire that they threw on the balcony and I gained some people shots.

    There are fantastic low-light images.thumb.gif

    I am still learning and every post I see here highlights for me one more assumption I have/had that turns out to be WRONG!

    What did I from your images - you don't have to have perfectly exposed, bright images to convey a message. These may be perfectly exposes (I'll let someone else judge that) but they are not bright. But they are great and I perceive a message!

    Thanks for posting. I really enjoyed these images.

    iloveyou.gif Comment much appreciated Scott.

    There was enough available light from the trucks and street lamps... and the telephone pole helped me steady my lens. I'm NOT a tripod person :D so I look for anything to help me steady my camera. I agree their not tack sharp but I got the look I was shooting for. I shot approx. 30 pics and these 3 where the winners. Go out and experiment on early/late evening scenes...digital is cheap!

    Be careful when you follow those fire trucks.rolleyes1.gif
