Great capture! The flames feel very real. Great composition.
Well done

great shot, nice exposure and composition, this I would think would be a very difficult shot to take, I bet it was very hot to be there

Hi Brendan.

Fantastic picture with a wonderful timming and composition. The exposure is great too and I must say: the subject is maybe the best of the photo.

Well done.

Hi Brendan,

What is a Fallas?! What I see here is like a piece of a staircase. But the backlight of the flames and the two firefighters works very well in this composition. Nice one!

Greetings,
Dennis

Amazing capture!
The flames make this a powerfull image!

Hi Brendan,
Impressive shot of the finale of festival. Fire and firemen now in the main role. Excellent warm tones from bright white to dark reddish brown.

Brendan: it's been some time. This frame looks as if it could've come from a movie celluloid. Nice departure here for you. best, c
