Hey Alex, who do you get to pull those Plantation rigs out for you. He sure does a good job.

I recently purchased a polarizing filter for my D60. Today, I shot a couple of my departments rigs as a test,

both Ladder-23 and Engine-20 were previously posted in this thread.



Here are the results with the polarizing filter, amazing!

Thanks, you guys are great!!



In addition, I will start adding "FIREPIX21 Photo" transparency text across my prints, I will no longer be editing rig specifications into my photos, all the information will be posted above the picture.

Yesterday, I hooked up with Mark Bindman for a day of buffing in Dade County. Although the weather was absolutely gorgeous, every rig I need to shoot and/or re-shoot was either not home or in a reserve.

But, we managed to get a couple beauties!!



Personally one of my favorites, Engine-40 in West Miami, operates a 2008 Pierce Arrow XT PUC 1500/750.

In search of Aerial-19, we were given a tip that they were visiting Station-20... Racing to catch them there, I was hoping to see them back in their frontline, sadly the weren't. Being that I needed re-shots of Engine-20, I took advantage



Engine-20 in North Miami East, operates a 2008 Pierce Arrow XT PUC 1500/750.

Tim,



Correct, In total there are (8) PUC's E7, E14, E20, E30, E40, E45, E56 (Arrow XT's) and E15 (Velocity).



Unfortunately I never did, Tim. Currently E15 is disband due to budget restrictions, I was speaking with a lieutenant yesterday and apparently, don't quote me... but, thier running a peak hour rescue unit couple days a week and pulling E14 from South Miami for suppression type incidents.



Can anyone provide the specifics?

[Fire28]

E14 geez thats a haul!

Awesome shots Alex!!! Maybe we can finish the rest of the PUCs in March.
