What do you do when your neighbour's flat goes up in flames?
Well if you are a photographer, you grab your camera and take pictures.
Frank Bennett is a retired professional photographer who lives in the Newton area of Hyde. I shall be posting a number of his pictures here over the coming months.

Frank and his wife Edna are now back in their flat which only suffered smoke damage.

Only smoke damage - that is some sized fire, they are lucky!
That's a very scary image...So glad they are OK!
Thanks (again!) for the distinction - seems like I'm always a bridesmaid, never a bride ;-)
intense flames, surprised it got that big
pollock - I think th smoke damage was to the NEIGHBOUR'S flat!
Glad no one was hurt in that fire.
Also, wanted to say thanks for sending me that postcard and photo. Thanks again. Barb
Very frightening!!
Goodness, that is spectacular. Well captured shot and thankfully, no one was hurt but presumably they've lost a lot of their worldly goods.
a live shot... scary though... ps: must of missed the caption comp photo?
Great photo! Hope no-one hurt.
The flames are captured forever.
I have celebrated this day, Mother's Day in my country, with a magazine cover for my wife. I hope you can see it.
I'm stoked - i'm a runner up! I go away for 48 hours and battle to catch up again.
I hope you called the fire brigade before grabbing your camera! I'm surprised the flat only got smoke damage with those flames. Looking forward to seeing his photos.
