 Big Sky Montana Friday August 27, 2010
Another accident in the winding Gallatin River Canyon.
A car traveling North on Hwy 191,lost control rolled over and burst into flames. The driver walked away from the accident with no serious injuries. The fast response of the local fire and rescue workers prevented a major forest fire.

A nice shot, but a bit overexposed.

Strikes me as a bit overexposed, but you've captured quite the event here. Good job.

Good moment, but would have been nice to get a different angle, maybe more of the fire. There's just a lot of space where we just see grass, non-burning trees and the truck. All of which aren't necessary. Also looks like a little bright. Watch the exposure.
