			<description><![CDATA[Hi. I'm looking for information on Liberty Road's Special Unit 468. It's listed as a 2004 Ford F550 with bodywork by Holland. Photo at <a href="https://www.hungrybusfire.com/BALTIMORE-COUNTY/CO460-LIBERTY-ROAD-VFD/i-zzPgKct/A" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">https://www.hungrybusfire.com/BALTIMORE-...-zzPgKct/A</a>. There was (is?) a company in Ontario called Holland Enterprises, but it seems a long shot that they were the builder as their production is mainly basic rigs for departments in their immediate area.<br />
<br />
Does anyone know anything about the Holland that built this truck, or a company in the area with that name? Thanks.]]></description>

As we're fast approaching IFBA 2018 - I am curious as to who (if anyone on here) is planning to attend?<br />
<br />
Perhaps we could get together on some off time (Sunday a.m., Thursday), and do some extra buffing.<br />
<br />
Hope there's a few folks in attendance on here.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This could either go here or rant &amp; rave section but i figured here would be better for now. <br />
<br />
When you go to a department and ask to have apparatus pulled outside to a specific area for the best quality photos. for one reason or another they refuse and just pull it out of the apron a little bit straight out or the A** still in the station.  <br />
<br />
What do you do? do you try and come back on a different shift working? forget about the department and just move on?  <br />
<br />
What is the best way to get good photos of the said apparatus? <br />
<br />
I have run into this a few times and I have gone a few different routes with the photos. usually I still take a photo then when I get home if it is as awful as I think it is I delete it.]]></description>

I have a growing number of fire scene photos, but many of them do not show fire (some don't even show smoke) - since it's the scene, does it still count even if there's no fire?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I have plans to go to Denmark this winter, probably late November or December. I'll be meeting up with a childhood friend who has been living in Copenhagen since the 80s so he should be able to help with the language and social customs. Obviously Denmark is on the agenda, and we have talked about adding some parts of Germany. The rest is pretty much see how it goes.<br />
<br />
I know we have a couple of members across the Atlantic, and probably more than a few from the US who have shot apparatus over there.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Just looking for suggestions, advice etc. I don't know how photographers are viewed, how security varies, or how fire service culture may differ.<br />
<br />
Obviously the time of year isn't the best for catching apparatus outside, but that is when I can get away.<br />
<br />
Thanks]]></description>
