yesterday, When we were about to start one of our sunday hikes we noticed smoke coming from a nearby mountain top. Me and 3 of my friends are bold environmental activists and we just couldn't help continuing with our hiking plan without making sure the fire is gonna be under control on the other side of the valley so we rushed up there only to find a small group of firefighters being helped with a group of super brave local farmers who rushed to the place with flip-flops!

I had my m9 on me with a 35mm lens only, I told my friends that I'll venture inside the fire area and try to document the event for our environmental council.

Fortunately, I was lucky to get some nice images but this was had something to it that makes it my proffered. Any comments are welcome as usual.

I was in love with the color tones but now I'm starting to like the B&W too.

I also loved it in color first! But now that I see the B/W, I find it much more powerful!... One of your best without any doubt, Rodrigue!

Thanks very much for wondering about me. It is summer; and I have been without my 109 for a few months!... I hope to be back with a new camera soon! ;)

Ahhhh, I Qan't wait to know which Qamera it is. :-)

And yes, all of you here are right, although the color picture has its own merits, the B&W is more powerful. I guess I'm Prining a 70x50 one opfor one of my walls.

Excellent, artful reportage, and including the naked bush at the right helps to tell the story perfectly. Excellent work!
