Firemen are always in our heart and think this feeling start soon from children too
I was in New York after 11 Sept., two years after in Ground Zero and was really sad to read all the names of firemen dead on that date.
My sons took photos with firemen in ground zero and we stopped to pry for them.
Was really a so strong emotion for us, near to cry.
Your simple photo is just to remember some particulars of their job, particulars that often need to save lifes
for this reason you shot is great.
Not only for details and pov but for the meaming of your message!
wow so many words and hope my words will be apreciate and hope to give you my feeling looking your shot.
Language can be a problem, but heart language need no translation.
Ciao
forgive my long comment

hi lisa.
well spotted. i would never have thought to take an image like this. i must open my eyes more often.

the lines of the ladders give this an abstract effect.
nicely composed and terrific notes.

Hi Lisa,
Good capture of this important piece of equipment, nice sharp lines and shapes.

Well done

Hi, Lisa -
Another great example of a common scene that you have recognized as an excellent photographic subject. Great graphics and geometric lines and shapes - the angled struts channel the eye to the sign. Fine management of light and shadows. The sign is bright and colorful. Well done!

Hi Lisa,
I wonder how many people owe their lives to this ladder?
The tight crop lets us see the sturdy construction in the structure, well seen.
TFS,
Pete.

Hi Lisa
Equipment that always needs to be kept in top shape.
They do have a lot of time to do so, but when duty calls its extremely dangerous and in our country where the winters are harsh it rips your heart out to see them covered in ice fighting away at something which is often a total loss.
Good shot with many lines depicting so well the long ladder.

I like the tight composition, with the bright red to catch the eye - nice sharp photo too which is the most important thing. Too many uploads on TL are blurred or out of focus but your pics are nice and sharp.
Cheers
David
