 Captured during firefighter training in early January. I loved this shot and as it happened, none was more special to me than this one at the end of the month. I wish it luck.

Shot in RAW, was a touch dark so I raised exposure before converting to .jpg. Reduced noise, adjusted contrast, levels, crop, save.

Great fire shot! Maybe a tad oversharpened on the stairs, but still a 10 for me. Good luck in the challenge.

Nicely sharp fire. Good highlights on steps, hats and round thing on right. Excellent action capture. 10!

Nice photo. I like the lighting and the tones a lot. Nice job on the exposure to get the fire and water blurred, and the silhouettes of the firefighters.

fascinating. Lots going on here. Would have liked a little more detail on the right side, but - not much light there, is there?
