Greetings from the Critique Club...
I guess for this to be more sound oriented I would have liked to have seen a racing truck with it's emergency lights going... it makes sense that this was taken at a parade, there is no sense of quick racing, siren pumping action... which to me, makes it just a photo of a fire truck.
Composition wise... not much to say here. it's not dead center which is good. I like the way it's coming towards you but not completely... I'm glad you didn't just shoot it as it went by in a straight line. I think this adds more of a sense of 3d. Good job filling the frame.
One thing that could have improved this shot since you didn't take it as it was rushing past to an emergency would have been paying closer attention to your background. The poles seem to be coming out of, maybe even attached to the truck, especially the back one.
As a photo, not as a sound photo, I like the reflection in the truck... kind of a hometown, fourth of july feel. Very nice.
Your colors are pretty good here, and your lighting seems to be nicely done, I like the fact that the shadow is underneath the truck... and there doesn't seem to be too many harsh shadows on the truck itself.
Overall not a bad photo, I don't think it got sound across, at least not to me, but it's a well composed nice looking photo.

I can hear it, and I think that's the best comment I can give for a "sound" competition entry like this one. Well framed and well executed shot. Would be a 9 if I was voting. |

Very good colors. I think Sound would have been captured better if the emergency lights had been on or if you could have captured motion in the fire engine. |

The blue background helps this photo glad you didn't crop the tree out makes it look more real. 8 |

If the shot included obviously lit emergency lights, it would have had a bit more impact for me in terms of 'sound'; I am not certain if they just aren't on or if the lighting conditions keep it from being obvious. I do like the shot; it's a very crisp photo and framed well. |

The focus looks to be near the rear of the truck. Perhaps a deeper depth of field would have gotten everything a little sharper. |

Would have been even better on the move. |

Now, if it actually had firemen in it and it was driving to a fire with the lights and sirens on it would convery noise. Still, a nice shot. |

I can't tell that the lights are flashing, or that the wheels are turning... there's no movement here... and was the truck even moving with sirens blasting? I don't get the feeling of sound. Sorry... |
