Fire and firefighters are almost always a good subject to shoot, fire in itself exudes action, without very little effort! I like the composition in this as well, the right mix of fire, firefighters and tires!!lol! No, really, it is an excellent photo! Good job!

It's a tire shop or at least what was left after about 45 minutes of burning. And thank you.

Actually, that was foam used because water would have spattered flammable liquids around causing the fire to simply spread.

As for your picture... Don't change a thing! The colour is great, composition is wonderful and the emotion is captured perfectly.

Now if only I could get rid of these feelings of starting a fire just so I could take pictures of firefighters at work.

LOL... That was a running joke among my friends... How I must've been aching so badly to try out my new camera that I 'created' the opportunity. But really, just a matter of right place, right time. One thing I really like about the Canon S3 over my SLR is the strong zoom factor without shelling out big bucks for the glass that would have been required to get that shot. I was about 60 metres (approx 75 yards) away from the action.
