On the day of the Main Avenue fire, an article about it appeared in the New York Times. With that piece was a striking photograph which offered a credit that said, “News 12 New Jersey.” Bob Bowné, contributing photographer at Blogfinger, saw the image and contacted us yesterday.
He said, “The photo in the NYT from up across the street was spectacular…shot right at dusk with all the guys up in the buckets with the hoses….
“It had a beauty to it ..if that is allowed regarding a tragedy. Great shot!”
Bob also said, “I am totally amazed that the firemen saved that block. Totally. They did an amazing job….I am tuning out any “complainers”…They ran a hose all the way from Fletcher Lake and took care of business. …..it could have been a LOT worse, all things considered.”
