First shot is brilliant with vibrant color. Love it. Glad you had a chance to pull the camera out amidst all the long hard and exhausting hours.......Now get some rest

Wow, these are so dramatic. Hope that nobody was hurt and glad it is all over. They are excellent captures. Love the one from the airplane. You guys do a super job. Thanks for showing us your workplace, but I bet you would rather be soaring with the eagles.

Jake.

I love your photographic work Terry and therse are no exception, although I guess you would have prefered not to have had a fire to photograph in the first place.
Keep safe, you and your colleagues, great job
