You are right, Antonio.

One only see them when there is a forest-fire, but it's a great shot anyway.

I remember the shot you made last year on the same topic. It was very impressive. Is it the same place ?

And this one is also excellent.
That's a great idea you have to stack the whole burst to show the amazing and creazy job these guys do bravely
Congrats Antonio, another superb shot to your great collection
Cheers
Fabien
Antonio Grambone  Hi Fabien,
the fire occurred about 30 km away from the one I photographed in August of 2009 and published last year. http://1x.com/artist/36165#!/photo/36672/portfolio/36165
The mountain is the same but the opposite side was damaged.

You're right that you talk about work and courage, while waiting for the water during loading of the aircraft to a nearby dam, I was with an agent of the State Forestry Corps, who also told me of the work being played on the ground and the many dangers.
Many thanks for the comment.
Greetings, Antonio Grambone.

fantastic moment, is it only one plane or are 4 planes in the frame?
Antonio Grambone  Hi Paulo,
I state that to tackle the flames were 2 planes.
the photo is composed of five images: 1) sequence of 4 photos which take the same aircraft (Air Tractor model AT 802 Fire - Boss) during the launch of water, 2) the second photo is the wall of water (in the foreground ) formed from a previous launch of the first plane.

Thanks so much for the comment... greetings, Antonio G.
Peter W. Giesemann  ...judging from the numbers under their wings it looks like there are actually FOUR different planes at once.

Your capture of this is excellent. The diagonals of the planes make the compo strong, and I can smell the smoke from the fires!
