i like your placement of the horizon, it's different from where most would put it and i think it works.

stunning nonetheless

To Zapata's comment.

You call these people unaware and selfish. How do you know that they weren't already outside watching the blaze for 3 hours. Lack of firemen, tell me that the fire has subdued and that this is just safety spray that they are putting out. Maybe that building on fire is this couple's appartment and they ran out of it and into the nearest store for shelter??? Who knows. Anyways, I do not see a selfish side at all.

I just wanted to point out that in my opinion, there is not enough information in this photo to prove that these two people are thoughtless, selfish people.

THats all.

Being no PS master, I'm not too sure of what to look for in very well PS executed images...I sure can spot an avg. PS job though.

The comments I'm hearing is that it's either PS'd or it's dumb luck. I think it's neither. I think that Paal was walking down the street with his siser or girlfriend and happened upon this fire. He got as close as he could to the action and would have had plenty of time to go inside the cafe, order a cake and set frame.

Whether it's PS'd or not, I'm 100% positive that this scene was created. It was not stumbled upon. I'm sure some street gawkers were asked to move out of the way for a couple of mins to take the photo.

Either way, great execution of an interesting image.

Oh and I don't think it's window washing going on in the back. Look at the smoke billowing out of the window and into the sky.
