Greetings all!
I spent yesterday evening at my neighbours BBQ. I had some steak, a few beer and some shots. A great evening. Went to bed and all was well until about one o'clock in the morning. I was waken by frantic knocking on my front door and someone yelling.
Apparently some punk a** kids (pardon my language, but I think it is deserved), inspired by the civil unrest in the big cities around Sweden decided to torch a car here. In my calm suburb. On my parkinglot. To the car parked next to mine
.
I grabbed my camera and rushed out. The manual lens happened to be mounted. So I did some SUI (shoot under influence) and SUS (shoot under sleepiness) and SAN (Shoot at night). Pictures came out as deserved, but since it's an unusual event i thought i'd share them anyways. The firebrigade had allmost put the fire out already when I arrived at the sceen.
Yes, that green car is MINE!
My car suffered quite extensive heat damage to the left front. The tire had not exploded, but it's burnt to a crisp on the rubber surface. Can't drive it no more
. The car is not worth the cost of fixing, so i guess i'll be looking for a new one next week.
The other car didn't do so well.
Thanks to some youths that saw the fire early on, the damages could be contained in time. Otherwise my car and probably more would have gone up in flames.
My thanks goes out to the firefighters who risk their lives for us!
