Hi, my name is Michael Schwartzberg (a/k/a "FirePix1075") and I began taking fireground and apparatus photos growing up in New York City. My photos have been published in many newspapers, including the Baltimore Sun, Baltimore Examiner, Orlando Sentinel, Newsday, NY Daily News and on the Associated Press wire.
