Why Won't They Let Me Shoot From Up There?

Now that's the way to shoot a public event. The crane is attached to a fire truck and I think the men in the bucket are members of the department. Couldn't they use a volunteer photographer with some good equipment? I'd love to see the images they got.

    Oh yes, that would certainly be a great vantage spot, but I think your shots from ground level were fantastic Bob.

    I think they have some good equipment. The question is, do they have your eye and your skill. Perhaps you should take up volunteer firefighting.

    I think their photos won't be nearly as good as yours from the ground!

    I remember this year I got onto the official photographer's platform for the Lemon Festival and I got such good shots - well different from below. You need to ask for a pass from whoever dishes them out, Bob. I got mine on account of the blog and so should you.

    Honestly your images are as good as it gets. Try and comfort yourself in thinking that they didn't do any better than you. But YES I understand the temptation...
