things have gone ahead leaps and bounds for me regarding the qfrs. I now get to be on the front line which makes taking the shots even more challenging... but very rewarding.

you can't miss me at incidents now.... i have a very very bright emergency services vest, some goggles, a mask, and a hard hat... as well as all the camera gear :)

cheers

I'd be very surprised if these pics didn't get published. Excellent work Mark.

The second photo of the fireman is great!

They did get published... in two separate newspapers. Pretty much all of the 'major' incidents are getting published now that I have a good working relationship with various papers. Portfolio is finally looking substantial :)

thanks for the comments.. :)
