Here's a shot which I decided I would bracket today in order to get the exact exposure I was after. Thoughts greatly appreciated.

Bracket 3 frames ev of 2.0.

The truck looks like it's been place in the frame and probly stand out a little too much for my liking, where abouts what that taken?

They had hazard reduction burning on the toowoomba range escarpment today but I didn't know about it so I didn't go. :(

Yi-P .... no tripod... 1/3200 @ 5.6 for the first frame.

Michael.. was taken at a small grass fire at north lakes...

lots of hazard reduction going on at the moment... bushfire season will certainly be early this year.

Mark,
It's a story to tell about the boys in action.
I like the mood & atmosphere with the fire engine in it.
Keep them coming.
