Welcome! I am Chris Smead, volunteer fire photographer. This site is dedicated to those who serve and protect in the San Jose Fire Department, Santa Clara County Fire Department, Loma Prieta Volunteer Fire Department, and Cal Fire. My goal is to share these experiences with those who may not be aware of the intensity of a scene, the amazing communication used to control a fire, and the dedication and bravery of the fire fighters. The struggle and determination found on the faces of these heroes serve as a great example of how selfless a human being can be.
