Photographer’s Note

This is the last picture from the fire that I witnessed in Niigata.
Again it was taken with the Ixus and I sharpened it a little afterwards.

Like a newspaper shot... That special touch is interesting here. You were (almost) in the action, we can feel that.

Harry,
curious to see that this shot attracted 221 people but only 2 commited so far to write a critique. Your image has a journalistic value and looks very good to me! The softness is interesting and gives the feeling of smoke everywhere. The colors red, yellow and blue are a real eye catcher.

Hi Harry,
I do not understand why there's so little interest for this picture.
The colors are great and the subject is really unusual. You could just have increased a little the sharpness but as Peter said, it's also an interesting approach.
Cheers
Marc

Hello Harry
An excellent full of action with the smoke contributing to the less sharp areas. Well done, Marlene
