This is really cool. Like it alot. Would've liked to have seen the fog/smoke/w/e rise a little bit higher as a second shot but maybe u have this already and picked this one because it was better.

I wish he weren't blocking the "6" so the full station number would be visible. However, it's a cool shot and he looks more like he's going to kick the crap out of the fire than put it out with water. :) I prefer the crop shot for the shot of him, but the wider one has better context. Good stuff.

Thanks, some shots I got the 68 and some shots I did not!
Trust me if anything could have happen, it did that day..... first no wind to start out with and then later a storm came in and knocked lights down and the firefighters were called out several times!
Trust me we were beat and it was HOT in HOUSTON!

These are awesome! The cropped one especially. Would love to see more of the shots you took that day.

Love the editing! The 2nd one is definitely the better of the two.
