Was on site when the fire brigade were removing a man from the river, obviously no pics of patient because of ethics etc.
I prefered the black and whites because in colour it would be just another pic of a fire brigade… an attempt to be different one could say.
Not sure about B+W. The first one is quite flat to me, where the fire engines would stand out much more in colour. I like the 2nd one, I’d have cropped it a bit tighter to the people. Didi you get any of guy further into the water, would be class with just his head sticking out.
I actually like the black and white, perhaps the levels could be adjusted to make the images pop a bit more but i think it was a good choice. To be honest though im not sure i would have had any idea what was happening had i not read your description. nobody is paying any attention towards the river in the first image and in the second they all seem to be sharing a joke, i assume the patient wasn’t hurt badly?
Cook: Ya i went with the B&W for something diff but il throw up colour pics and see what ya think.
Kav: Haha ya they were laughing at yourman cause he couldnt climb up the ladder.. it was too greasy. Well the patient was in the water a while but seemed ok.. was on his feet for a min or two before he got in the amb.
