17 JAN 07 - Puyallup, WA
Well, there was all this excitement when a lady came up to my house and told me to call 911 because the house across the street was on fire. The fire department showed up, hooked up the hoses, busted into the house (still under construction) and discovered that it was just steam coming out of the house because they had put texture on the walls and that was causing all the smoke to come out of the windows. At least I got a couple of photos from all this.
The organisers of the busking comp. brought on this amazing act as the finale whilst the judges decided on the winners.
Nose of a fire truck in Julian, California
Taken a day trip to Julian, a town known for its apple pies and I can vouch that they are delicious. We continued on to Aranza Borrego Desert State Park
Lighting the fire during a cold Albany winter. Taken with Pentax 50mm f1.4 (via adaptor). Another 'cross-process' look thingy with grain added in post despite the shot being taken at ISO 6400.

More fun playing with fire!
I like the way this one turned out, because well, the first 4 attempts to photograph this with some other ideas all failed horribly, alcohol doesn't burn all that well, the butane torch ran out of fuel, alcohol let me down again, and one other experiment failed :(
So I found a bottle of teflon chain lube for my bike chain with a big "flammable" logo on it! BINGO! so I got this one by gently blowing on the flame to make it a bit bigger and irregular in its pattern
That and 5 frames per second helped me get this one too!
The rock berm is the edge of an old fire-department access road to the power lines. All I can say is that they must have had some pretty impressive off-road fire trucks in those days. Minolta Hi-Matic 7s, Adox CHS 50 in PC-TEA.
The bare sage branches are mostly burned material from the Cedar Fire in 2003.
