 I was lucky enough to drive past a building as the fire department was burning it down. I hoped out and they let me run around anywhere I wanted to take pictures. To top it off, when the building was almost completely gone, they offered me a cheesburger and some french fries to enjoy with them. Such nice people.

It's really a very nice shot, but I don't see how it fits with entrance.Iin a more fitting challenge I would have given it a high rating, but unfortunatley I just don't see the connection.

wow! What an awesome picture. I am not sure how it fits with the category (Entrance), but I could take my eyes off the image.

great photo, i think this one could have worked for the exit challenge too.

This is an interesting image, but the fire doesn't really look like fire; up to the buildings it's a really good shot, in my opinion, but the flames just don't hold up for me.

I feel for the people who lived there. Stirring image.

Perhaps a bit stretched for the "Entrance" topic...more of an Exit really? Dramatic nevertheless.

Wow! What a amazing, yet sad shot. The sillouettes in the foreground make a good contrast.

Cool Picture. No clue what it has to do with "Entrance".
