Description
Colorized photo from 1915
Original Title: Bedell fire, 7 & D, Oct 15, 1915
Location: 638 D Street N.W, Washington.
The hardest part about this one was trying to make the fire trucks stand out enough to be seen, and for it to stand out as a thumbnail. The sky I wanted to be a hazy yellow/blue combo. Partly because it was later in the day in October. And that smoke tends to wash away details, and adds an orange hue to the sky. You can see some of the smoke in the background, the wind must be blowing away from us.
I like the spectators in the building next to them, that building on the left, bottlers supplies, burned down a few years back, it used to sell paper. I was able to get the story about the image from the original newspaper clip.
