You can't extinguish lion's fire | Adelaide Now
what a killer picture!
ENGULFED in flames and smoke, this Holden still knew how to roar.
Photographer Adam Reynolds noticed a pair of Holden Commodores alight behind his house in western Sydney on Friday and grabbed his camera.
At first glance, it simply appears to be a car ablaze. But take a closer look and, thanks to the position of the rear-view mirror and windscreen, the flames take on an amazing resemblance to the Holden Racing Team's lion logo.
"It's like the spirit of the Holden is leaving the car as it's being torched," Mr Reynolds said yesterday. "I took the photos on the Friday night but it wasn't until Sunday when I was looking through them that I noticed the lion."

Should I put out the flames? Na this will make a sick picture.
Welcome to the internet where people have opinions that you might not like
Unless you got a massive dry powder extinguisher than its usually best to let them burn out. If the fuel tank is ruptured the water will spread the fuel fire as the fuel will float on the water.
Besides what would you put it out with, your backyard hose? The fires that size, just stand back and enjoy the show, let the fire brigade do thier job. Unless of course it a serious threat to a house or something.

Newspix - Search Results and fire and hl0911 . this one shot was in a set of 30+ that was taken. If you knew me y'd know it aint photoshopped, basic IT is all i know.
