Around 1500 on 7/30/19, Pawtucket Fire responded to a fire in an auto repair shop, first due companies reported heavy fire showing.  A second alarm quickly followed with numerous special calls after that.  The exposure C side of the building collapsed and several vehicles were also involved, some with magnesium engine blocks.  According to the thermometer in the car, the temperature was 98 degrees and it was extremely humid, making for a tough fight.

4th and final.  My E3 kept reverting to manual settings, even though I changed them several times, resulting in badly overexposed, useless shots or there would have been many more.

Those 4 shots turned out well. I really like the first one.
