This is from when the Flare Nightclub was on fire in downtown Kingston. By the time I got there, we couldn't see any fire but I still took a few photos.
I wanted to enter this into the weekly contest on froknowsphoto.com, but I didn't upload it in time! Do you like this edit, or the color edit?

An interesting fire hydrant sign in Blackawton that must represent a transition phase between its cast iron predecessors with numbers that 'slot into' the sign template and the modern version with 'stick on' vinyl numbers. The base sign is made of sheet metal with the large H painted on the plate and the whole assembly mounted in a concrete post. Also of interest is the distance to the pipe connection in the road which is 1.2 meters. This sign's location can be seen in my post at www.flickr.com/photos/61719529@N07/8537615147/in/photostream along with the location of the yellow-painted cover in the roadway.
I saw this fire hydrant next to a factory while on an early morning walk with a friend. I'm not sure if the paint is peeling from lack of use or over-use.
It's hard to believe that it is the end of March. At least the snow-locator extension on the hydrant is unnecessary today (the red and white wire is higher than record snow around here, so even with a lot of snow on the ground we can find the fire hydrants.)
365 Days in Colour: March: "pale blue"
It looks like perhaps the city should find someone to paint the fire hydrants this summer.
