Default September 19-night shots

I went out tonight and set the tripod on a highway overpass. While playing with the shutter speeds there I saw lots of smoke (visible in one of the pictures) and fire vehicles heading the smoke's way. I decided to go see the fire for myself but by the time I got there it was already out. I couldn't get close enough to see for myself, but I know it was a house that burned down. Most of the pics are available in hi-res...so p.m. if you're interested.




































The whole fire thing wasted a lot of my time and I had to go home afterwards because it was getting damn cold and I'm still not completely over the flu. Hopefully I'll get some more/better pics sometime this week.

Enjoy!

Mihai
