Photo of the Week

Every week, we select a Photo of the Week to feature in our Friday Member Newsletter and on FireRescue1’s Instagram page. Photos can include anything from fireground scenes and crewmembers in action to fire apparatus on display and community events. But don’t let that limit your imagination!

So the next time you come across something inspiring on duty, take out the camera and submit it to FireRescue1! Just remember to include your name, agency information and brief background information on the picture.

Please note that images submitted to FireRescue1 for inclusion in Photo of the Week are unpaid submissions, and we may ask you for permission to use the image with other content in the future. Photos should be current (taken within a month of submission). Safety tip: Never take photos during fire and rescue operations. Ensure that you are fully focused on your crewmembers, and only submit photos taken during safe operations and activities.
