Amart All Sports fire, Capalaba

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

At approximately 0345hrs, QFRS 530a (Capalaba Pump) and 547a (Cleveland Pump) turned out to a structure fire at Amart All Sports, Redland Bay Rd, Capalaba. Upon arrival crews called for further pumps to attend a fire which was deep seated in the shopping complex. The following further appliances were responded: 515a (Wynnum Pump), 509a (Camp Hill Pump), 501b (Kemp Place Pump), 507a (Cannon Hill Pump), 850o (BA Hazmat), 501t (Kemp Place control vehicle), 850q (BA Hazmat), 502J (Roma Street Tap), and 501i (Kemp Place LP).

Strewth, the second and third send a chill up my spine... There may not have been people in there at this call, but these guys would never know I suppose...

I have a very deep respect for those prepared to risk their lives for others...

Did this fire make the news? Looks expensive?

Great shots in #2 and 3

Cool shots mark.

It also appears the gatton firecom repeater is back up for me, they must have been repairing it or something.
Are we there yet?
