Remarkable and unforgettable image! It is absolutely compelling in the way it elicits emotion from the viewer, and also conveys the fireman's sense of helplessness in the face of such a disaster.

Photojournalist: images of events that impact our daily lives. This is perfect Rich. The mood and the image are a perfect match. I can just feel the disbelief of the fireman that he wishes he could've done more to save what was lost.

This is very poinant and emotive. A great documentary image, Richard.

Great shot. The dark shadows hide what you know is there but can't see.

I almost can here his minds. "I just couldn't do more to help". Superb shot.

What a shot. You can just feel all of his emotion in his shoulders and the stance of his feet- perfect amount of context.

This is stunning. Having seen the devastation of two local buildings in our small town, I can literally feel the pain in this image.
