Sunog! (Firefighting in Makati)

Picture
At around 1:00am I heard multiple fire trucks and sirens go by. Got up, grabbed my gear and followed the wailing sirens. When I arrived, I intently surveyed the scene. Internaliziing the mindset of a CNN correspondent, I faked the part and fired away.  I'm not sure how the fire-figheters viewed my role in the midst of it all...I was after all in my shorts and driving shoes. 

I arrived as the blazing fire was about caput (anti-climax I know)... but thick plumes of smoke still bellowed everywhere.  I still managed to get some vital images to report.

Great and dramatic photo journalistic series. I hope nobody got injured!

    The blog is about the Philippines... the less photographed side of it. My hope is that as I develop the series, the story I tell about  trivial  life in the country resonates with its readers. 

    I witnessed these places behind the lens, so be warned about the occasional photography tutelage. ; )
