 Finally decided to go for this version. The colors are better, but all I did was to mess around with the sliders in neat image, then giving it a border.

Hopefully it looks more dramatic than it was; a shoppingcart with some funky things in it took fire in a parkinghouse, so there was alot of smoke in there they had to get out (have photos of a long plastictube they used for it). The photo I didn't get that I should've gotten was when the fireman entered the house, walking up the small road in it where a sign (for cars) said: "INN" above him. That, I think, would've been a good one. But I'm quite happy with this, and hopefully it will harvest a few good points for being dramatic. Hopeless title thoug..

ANYWAY! This is my first "being the right place at the right time" moment I've ever had!

I like this ... the fireman in front of an inferno ... a seemingly unfightable fire. I almost missed the air tank and therefore almost missed the fire fighter connection. I think I'd like it even better with more shadow detail on the fireman's back. It feels a bit flat now, more detail would have made it come to life.
