it's a nice subject with great colours, but I wonder if another angle or composition wouldnt have made the shot even better...
I agree with the angle and great colors. I would like to see more of the helmet, it's a merger. Great subject.

I agree with the others. Great colors! Unfortunately you lose most of that in the second image. If you have trouble getting a good composition by pulling back, maybe the opposite will work. As it is, the first one is a little confusing. Maybe by cropping in even tighter, you can make it more of an abstract.
Any advice given in the above post comes from a deranged madman. Implement at your own risk.

I'll bet that helmet has a shield on it and I would have liked to see that.
Rather than hang it, maybe place it on the tailboard, jumpseat, front seat, or on the head of a firefighter. Like the others I would like to see more of it.
