Great capture…very thought provoking. But did they save the house??
Globalphotos replied
Thanks….I walked around to the rear and there were an additional 5 firefighters there. The situation looked pretty bad and being a weatherboard house and in poor condition I wouldn’t have thought it was salvageable :(

That’s summed up so well in this shot. The positioning of the fire fighters bracing themselves to tackle another blaze is caught well and the position and framing work well.
