G'day all I've had this idea in my noggin for a very long time and just last sunday I was able to put pen to paper so to speak and went up to kitchener street fire station in toowoomba and conducted the shoot, I'm a familiar face amoung the guys up there so cooperation wasn't any trouble. the guys were more then happy to have a bit of fun on a sunday morning.

Great story told through photo's. Very well done.

Hi Michael,

As said offline... great choice of shutter speed in the second frame...

I'm a big fan of this shot.. nicely done.

cheers

Thanks mark and sir tristram.

Michael

Great story telling in these 3 shots. #2 shows superb use of shutter speed. Tripod mounted? The last shot is a little too formal for me. I'd have liked to see something dropped in haste or the shoes more scattered, but that's only a minor issue

A complementary set of images Michael. Great story line. Perhaps as a small suggestion having the back end of the firetruck disappearing in a blur round the corner in the third shot may have added a little extra:)
cheers

Stubby yes all three shots were trpod mounted.

I would have like to get the truck disappearing around the corner but I couldn't get a decent shot in time.

and the boots were left how the guys took them off to put thier pants on for authenticity thanks for the comments though much appreciated.

Cool idea, and it works really well. Great story of our unsung heros.
