Behind the scenes with FDMT

Here's hoping you don't see it for a while, but the Fire Department of Montgomery Township now has a new state-of-the-art fire engine that has officially entered service:

Out with the old, in with the new as FDMT welcomes new engine http://bit.ly/1KWir2K

Ever wonder how we were able to get that cool photo? Here's a shot of our photographer Geoff Patton deploying his monopod, and using a mix of skill and luck to get just the right angle:

and it's worth noting Friday was also the final day for FDMT's oldest fire engine, a 1988 model the department obtained when they were formed in 2002, and they've sold to a collector in Virginia...couldn't resist taking one last pic of that too:

congrats FDMT!
