First the back story. I was in a local supermarket when their fire
alarm went off. This has happened before while I was there, but it was
turned off and everyone, including employees simply ignored it and went
about their business. I guess the system is prone to false alarms.
This time after a few minutes of customers and employees ignoring the
alarm, managers started moving about evacuating the store. In the
parking lot I figured if the place was going to burst into flame I'd at
least take some pictures.
A couple of observations, it's amazing how close these people will stay
to a possibly dangerous situation. It's also amazing that after the
Fire Department arrived they didn't clear people well away from the
front of the store just in case.
So without further ado let me present Where's the fire? Not my best
photo reportage but at least I had a telephoto lens and stayed well back.

Usually I had code a web gallery but I was feeling fairly lazy at this
point.
