It's not too often that a person stumbles upon a fire hose hooked up to a hydrant, but yesterday, that happened to me. I was almost giddy as I looked at the hose folded up in interesting rows with the nozzle carefully placed on top. I like to think that the local fire department knew I was coming and had this ready for me to shoot.
Found this old 5 1/4" hydrant alongside a frontage road between some abandoned manufacturing facilities and the main CSX RR tracks that bisect my hometown. Has 1948 stamped above the nozzle openings of which the caps have been long lost to vandals or ne'erdowells.

They Call Me the Fireman
~ George Strait
They call me the fireman
That's my name
Makin' my rounds all over town
Puttin' out old flames
Well everybody'd like to have what I've got
I can cool 'em down while they're smolderin' hot
I'm the fireman
That's my name
Last night they had a bad one a mile or two down the road
Well my buddy walked out and left this woman burnin' out of control
Well I was down there in 'bout an hour or so
With a little mouth-to-mouth she was ready to go
I'm the fireman that's my name
They call me the fireman
That's my name
Makin' my rounds all over town puttin' out all flames
Well everybody'd like to have what I've got
I can cool 'em down while theyre smolderin' hot
I'm the fireman that's my name...burn 'em up
I've got fire-engine red t-bird automobile
In a minute or less I can be dressed fit to kill
I work twenty-four on and twenty-four off
When they get too hot, they just give me a call
I'm the fireman, that's my name
They call me the fireman, that's my name
Makin' my rounds all over town puttin' out old flames
Well everybody'd like to have what I've got
I can cool 'em down while they're smolderin' hot
I'm the fireman, that's my name
They call me the fireman
That's my name.
The OS fire department held a contest in which people paint a hydrant and maintain it for a year. I think this is too late, but the local merch discovered it a good advert for thiere business to paint the hydrant by thiere store.

Fire Hydrant is what popped out when I was riding my bike around asking the Lord to help me find an F word to take a photo of. My list failed me today. I wasn't going to Furano. My flat futon would require me to pull the sheets off my bed and I was out of ideas.
Der Hydrant war in einer falschen Gruppe gelandet - da habe ich ihn dann aus Versehen gelöscht -

Looked like a fire hydrant from days gone by so thought I would process as such.
This was in Dubai outside the amazing Dubai Mall (the largest mall in the world!).

3D stereo phantogram crossview. If unfamiliar with phantograms, please do a search on the net for information on how to view these special 3D stereos.
Some may not be aware that you can also do phantograms in other 3D formats besides anaglyph! Anaglyphs are the most common format however and possibly why people assume they have to be in that format.
My parents are in town today, so I decided to take an early daylight shot. I like the colors.

An SIS hydrant truck is connected to the central aviation fuel pipeline network and provides fuel to the aircraft. There is a significant advantage with hydrant systems when compared to fuel trucks, as fuel trucks must be periodically replenished.
