Timing is Everything.

Sunday I had the pleasure of going back to Rutledge to work on a photo essay for my Location class, and on my way home to Atlanta I saw this huge cloud of smoke pouring over 20 West. I didn’t even think twice about it, I just stopped to see what was going on. There were no firetrucks or any police officers yet, and I just waited and watched as I saw flames go up everywhere in this one lot. I stayed for a few minutes to see what it would be like to document the event. These are the images I was able to capture of the fire.

Timing really is everything with photography. I was never able to find anything online about the fire, so hopefully no one was hurt. But I have to say, I wouldn’t mind being able to capture events on a daily basis, I think it would be a great opportunity to meet all kinds of people and travel all around. Next week I am really going to try and go to the Livestock and Rodeo Show in Perry Georgia. Wouldn’t that be a great event to photograph!
