IMO the relationship between the title and picture are key elements in this challenge. Good subject, too bad you couldn't have been a little closer and got a better exposure. It looks like the overcast day should have produced better colors and clarity.

Wouldn't it be ironic if the building behind them was on fire?
Good choice of subject

Nice picture. I like the framing on this shot. The focus is a little soft but I don't think it hurts the shot much, if any. It's a very nice candid shot of these brave fellows who deserve a little face time. - Inspzil

Good idea... I would have tried zooming in. Good try!

A bit grainy, and possibly over sharpened. (The smoke looks like a sharpening routine has been run. Legal but blotchy results.) Are these guys on strike? Seeking donations? You are on the right track to a really good pic. Just needs a little more. 6.

good idea, in my opinion could better be left in horizontal and macro, single the screen.
