Quote:Yeah, thanks for sharing Trey. I'm a local out of northern VA but I don't share anything because my shots are all taken out in public, not proper roster shots like what you do. I've been to a few stations to try my hand at getting proper photos but the reception has been lukewarm up here. Not sure if it's because I'm not a FF or what but I've been to a few stations and they told me county policy won't allow it. A couple volunteer stations have helped me out, but most of the career FF's are really hesitant to pull a piece of apparatus out.
LocalNovaPics,
I'm sorry to hear that you've had some hesitation from different career crews about moving apparatus around. Frustrates me to hear that. Like Trey said, sometimes a phone call ahead of time can make a big difference. Days can be pretty jam packed and sometimes it's hard to be flexible and change things on the fly. Try to schedule a time if possible, you should be able to find a list of station phone numbers on any County website.
