As I continue to mention, patience is a key factor when being a photographer. Case in point this two alarm fire that took place in city of Orange, with our friends from Orange city fire, Anaheim Fire and Rescue and (OCFA) Orange County Fire Authority.

This fire that was initially knocked down, but decided to be stubborn and start back up again. It was at this point where I was able to capture this shot. After everyone had left, I stayed just a little bit longer because I felt there was more to be captured and it turned out there was.🚫 Not AI generated

You should visit the station and give this to the firefighter.  Its a reminder of his bravery.  

I took this shot 41 years ago.  The truck is gone, but I think it is still hanging in the firehouse.

Definitely agree.  Not only is this a great portrait shot, but it has significance to the firefighters, I am sure.
