Montreal FD puts out appartment unit fire

What are the odds of me getting shots of fire gear twice in the same day without looking for it!?! We got a fire down the street from my house in the early evening and I got the chance to take some shots.

The Canon G12 performed great in this low-light/action situation. The only problem with the G12 for photo journalism is its size. People don't take it very seriously. That's why I carry a film SLR on my sling even if I'm not going to use it. I swear, the SLR seems to act like a press pass!

Well, I'll dedicate this post to all the full time firefighters out there, stay safe.

Thanks for watching.

The Gore Fire Department

While on photo safari in the County of Gore in Quebec's Laurentian region I dropped by my old firehouse and found the current members during exercise day.

Who said training should be boring?

Fire apparatus is always a blast to shoot as they are very colorful and most of the time very clean.

This post is dedicated to all the volunteer fire crews out there. Stay safe.

Thanks for watching.
