Men and Women Of Honor
So here are 50 of the more than 300 pictures I took of a fire that happened down the street from my building in the middle of the night on early friday morning. These firefighters are very brave and awesome people!
I just wanted to say real quick that as far as I know no one was hurt. So I think that's the most important thing.
I totally hope they just build another Chili's in it's place! I've eaten there a number of times over the past however many years and it's always been good times! The best was when we went with like 20 camp people and they had to figure out how to string together tables and where to put us all. Good times for sure. But then again that happens every time I meet camp people because there is ALWAYS some huge number of us.
The only editing done to these is that they were resized to 640 width because the original size of 4k plus pixels would have taken up a TON of space on my blog. As well I added a little watermark thing. I'm being told I should put that on all my stuff on my site? I guess? I don't know... I kinda don't like it because it takes away from the picture some.
I used my Sony Alpha A33 camera and switched back and forth between two lenses the 55-200 and the 18-55... I still haven't figured out the best way to switch lenses in the middle of walking around with a camera and camera bag while there is also so much else happening. I am worried one of these days i'm going to drop something! Either the lens or the camera! Maybe I need to practice changing lenses?
OK well I don't know what else to write... I guess if anyone likes a certain picture and maybe just wants a copy for any reason just contact me and I'll just email you the full size of it. If anyone knows anyone that works for any of these fire companies and they want one of the pictures just give my info to them and I can email them whichever they want.
I had an idea maybe to get a couple framed and try to maybe sell them and donate that money to one of the fire companies? But I always have ideas like this and then never have a good way to implement them. I want to join some kind of volunteer organization that helps people with good ideas about helping others get those ideas put in action. Or maybe start an organization like that. I can call it something like the "Helping Help" foundation.
Well enough rambling... here they are:
