My complete set of pictures for this challenge can be found here - MY OCTOBER 2012 SET
Had just got back into my taxi this morning after purchasing my first coffee of the day when I heard our controller saying something over the two-way radio about a bus being on fire in the City.
It turned out to be in a street not far from where I was parked - well what could I do but go have a look.....
When I got there two Fire appliances from Chelmsford Fire Station were on the scene and the fire was out however a large amount of smoke/steam was still eminating from the back of the vehicle....
I parked up and jumped out of the car - It was still fairly dark (it was only just 07:30) so I upped the ISO to 400 but was still getting low shutter speeds...
I then upped the ISO to 1250 - don't ask why I chose that but I did.......
Anyway - I rattled off a few shots from different angles - and heres one of them.
A bit later on after checking the shots I decided to call the local paper (Essex Chronicle) but thats a story for another day.....
Nikon D7000
Nikon 35mm lens
F3.5 @ 1/100 second exposure
ISO 1250 (yes really)
