Greetings from the Critique Club -
First let me say that photojournalism in not my expertise so please bare with me.
My first thought is that you got a good pic of a fireman. It would have been nice to see some aspect of the emergency so to tell more of a story (that must be the rubber necker in me).
The colors are nice and crisp. The focus could have been a bit sharper in my opinion. I see that your ISO settng was at 1600 which probably didnt help - might be the cause for the slight noise in the background/house area. Cropping that area out may have been a slight improvement.
Not sure what else to add here. Overall the pic doesnt really tell a story by itself. It may have worked as one piece of a larger work of pictures. It's not a bad shot but not a strong one either IMO. But please take my opinion for what its worth - an opinion. Good luck on your future entries and I look forward to seeing more of your work.

| ok, you chased a fire truck. if you're an amateur, hat's off to ya. if you're a pro, why didn't you capture something of the emergency that would give the image context? other than the mask, we don't have anything here that tells us any of the story. |

| Good choice for the challenge. I'd have cropped it a bit more on the right, perhaps to the edge of the "keep back" yellow thing. |

| This is one of the better shots i've seen so far in this challenge. You caught both eyes, background supports the foreground. The image is a little too centered though. The rule of 3rds could have been applied to make this a better image. 5 from me |

| You lost me on the title. Where's the emergency? In photojournalism you have to word titles and cutlines carefully. |

:-) Hope they have something more useful than waterbottles to put those fires out. They are funny there behind him, but show that she/he is not in a hurry.
Or it could be a picture with an article on water-shortage....... |
