I'm back for the moment...

Hey everyone..

I hope you all have been well. In the busytime of packing and doing everything else while trying to move. I did have just a little downtime and I wanted to get your feedback on this.

The other day I went to Borders and bought Photoshop User Magazine. In that I read an article about poorman's HDR and how to create an HDR photo.

So I decided to attempt it and see what I could do. What you see is the result.

I've attached the original and the one I did in photoshop.

The image I worked on, I think is ok but I don't think I was able to get it quite to where I wanted it.

Sooo...I would love any feedback from the people much smarter at this stuff then I am..

Please feel free to leave anytype of feedback..Good or Bad...

Have a great week folks and I'll be back fulltime soon!!

Fires in the basement...

Hey Everyone,

These photos were taken yesterday afternoon. I was on my way to work when I heard police department get advised of a reported building fire at a popular restaurant. I was heading in that direction to work anyway. I heard the duty officer from the FD arrive with nothing showing, the first due engine and truck arrived and then I heard the duty officer reported a working basement fire.


So I quickly diverted as I was running early for work and decided to shoot some quick photos. The engine crew already had the fire knocked by the time I got there.

The photos are of the two ladder trucks that were on the scene. The first one is Roherstown Fire Company Truck 6-7 and the second one is the Eden Fire Company Truck 2-4.

By the way, Bradley If you like wings, this is the best place in Lancaster County to get them and the lager is always well stocked...


Have a great weekend!!

Fires running the row...

Hey everyone..

Hope your week is going good. This photo was actually taken this morning at a multiple alarm fire in York City. I was leaving work at midnight and turned on the scanner. I originally thought I was listening to a working house fire in Coatesville City down in Chester County. I then heard York Chief 2 arrive on the scene with command and ask for an additional alarm. So I decided to take a ride over. Listening to the scanner, I was anticipating on still seeing some fire when I got there. All I saw though was smoke. So I shot some scene shots and I was actually looking for Brian Bastinelli thinking he may have been there, but did not see him. This photo is of the former Truck 16 from Springettsbury Township Fire Rescue. It is now Truck 89-1 from York Area United Fire Rescue. It is the merger of Springettsbury and Spring Garden Townships.

Hope you all have a great day!!
