Thanks - to those doing the dangerous work. Regarding composition, maybe the horizon alignment from the top of the fence would work better for this image.

I am afraid this will not do too well. Although there is an implication that there may be a fire raging somewhere with the presense of the fire engines, The absense of fire / flames will not go to well with the DPC masses. 4
