Michael
Dick, a professional photographer, dedicated seven years to fire
photography in preparation for the book "New York's Bravest - Their
Lives on the Line" published in 1987. During this time he concentrated
his efforts on Harlem and the South Bronx and created approximately
five thousand color slides. In this book all the photographs were taken
by Michael Dick and the text was written by Lt. Thomas Barry, L-42
(Ret.) Many of these photos were reproduced in black & white, this
is the first time they are being shown in color. Some of the best of
these were used in the book and many more will be showcased here. This
was in the 1980s and the slide film used then has been replaced by a
memory card in a digital camera. This technological advantage would
have made photography a lot easier back then but it seems that things
always seem to be changing. |
