Loads more in my Factory Fire Set.
A fire broke out around Midnight in a building near our house. I was in bed reading when I heard a firetruck go past and then a couple of explosions.
The building was referred to as 'the old National Tile building' in this article from the local paper. I believe the building contained several different companies.
Adjacent houses were evacuated for a few hours. I don't know yet whether any of those houses were damaged or destroyed. The factory is a total loss though. It burned from one end to the other.
It's the same building that I used for this self portrait a while back.
I was really planning on going to bed 'early' tonight, too, cause I'd been up late the night before 'Flickering.'
Four Hours later, I'm off to catch a few 'Z's'
More in this Set.

I think this is my favorite shot of the night.

This is one fantastic photo! It could easily become Iconography. I bet if you printed off a couple of 8X10s and took them to the firehouse, they would end up in frames all over town.
