Mike was right after looking back and walking to the front of the building from the area where they were judging it was definitely the fault of the registration and I apologize for referring that it was some of the photographers faults when in fact it was registration and would have been fine but that person at registration caused a fuss that did not need to be. I guess some people get their panties in a wad when they see a group of people that were actually posing them in record pace with that many people. I don't know what to say but next year I have already talked with the fire chief and it will have plenty of room at Big Boulder for photo ops. Sorry guys.

Will it be the same group of judges (and therefore the same head judge) next year? If so, my guess would be that the head judge is such a 'head' case that even if there is plenty of space for photos and the photographers are not interfering in any way with the judging process, he will still decree that there cannot be any photos taken.

For whatever reason this guy has a dislike for photographers, probably upset that he's not having his picture taken. I had a small camera in my hand and was standing chatting to a firefighter while he was working on one of the trucks in the cleanup area, trying to arrange something with him for another weekend, and the head judge drives up in his golf cart and threatened to have me removed if I was trying to take photos. WTF?!? I was only talking to someone, how does it look like I'm taking photos, the camera wasn't being used! Todd, what is that dude's problem?

I DID SEE THAT THE CLEAN UP AREA BACKED UP TO WHERE WERE SHOOTING ANYWAY SO THAT SPOT WOULD HAVE BEEN LOST. I MOVED UP TO BETWEEN THE REGISTRATION AND CLEAN UP AREA AND GOT SOME THERE. MAYBE NEXT YEAR IT COULD BE SET UP TO CATCH THEM AFTER THEY ARE JUDGED. HOW ABOUT IT TODD?

Today, a bunch of us photographers got together in Schuylkill County. The Group consisted of Myself, EMS12(Pat Shoop, Sr.), Larimer(Bill Hardy), fd1686(Pat Lepore), and Scott. The day started off good, but mid afternoon clouds forced us to bypass a few stations. The day ended with a bang photographing the entire Pottsville Fire Dept. Here are a few of my favorites. I'll let others post the rest.

The Pennsylvania State Fire Academy located here in Lewistown, PA. has recently taken delivery of two new units. Tower 10 is listed below, with information. Engine 10 was unable to be photographed yet because tools are being mounted. It is a 2010 KME Panther 1250/500.

How long will the old trucks be kept around?
Shoop Photos - Guest - 11-29-2010
The old tower and engine will be kept around until sold. There is no real time frame. There is no room in Harrisburg for the units to be stored until sold. If ya want some photos, you better get up here soon. lol
