WNB On Flaming!!
Well my celebration of Go Skateboarding Day got cut a little short, as Chuck and I bombed our favorite hill into the downtown area only to find that the Wyoming National Bank (a historic building currently being refurbished into apartments or something) was ENGULFED IN FLAMEY FIRAGE!!!
As soon as I saw it I was furious I didn’t have my camera with me, and we managed to sprint back UP the hill, back to my house, grab my camera, and bomb back down in my car in time to catch some good firefighting. I tried to get some good up close shots, but we got yelled at by the cops, so all my photos are from afar….
Anyway, I took about 60 photos, battling a tiny memory card and a dead battery along the way. I PRAYED (so to speak) for three good photos, and I think I got what I wanted. I’m posting six that I thought turned out pretty good, and I’m pretty pumped on two or three of them. I’d tell you which ones they were, but you can just pick your favorite three and pretend those are my favorite three as well. Maybe we could get together for drinks sometime.
Oh, I also only grabbed my low angle tripod, so expect lots of LOW ANGLES.

It literally WAS the great Irish potato famine. I love that famine.

Wow, awesome photos. The second one is really good, the low angle worked really well for that shot. Oh, by the way, I added you to my blogroll. I’ve been following your blog ever since I found your Pictochat image.
