Fire scene photography in Detroit

I am in Detroit for a few days shooting fire scenes with Steve Redick. After a slow (and very hot) start to the day, we caught a few well-involved dwelling fires after dark. I’ve never been here before but have always heard of the great opportunities for fire scene photography in Detroit.

Having been up for 23 hours, I’m going to be brief and post a few images.
