Fire Man- personal project

Whilst participating in Work Experience within the Photographic Section at R.A.F Waddington, I got the opportunity to go and take photograph’s of the firemen testing a new foam pump they had recently got. I was fifteen at the time and I got to use this enormous camera with a large heavy lens, which I had trouble holding up as I had never used anything like this before, seeing as I have an Olympus E-400. It was initially bought as a starter camera for me at the time, however I still use it today. It is a very light camera and has a small body, so in comparison I felt I was using a ‘real professionals’ camera. I was asked to take ‘dramatic’ photo’s of the firemen and I think I managed to achieve this.
