Charleston Fire Department E103 travels southbound on King Street, going past the former Morris Sokol Furniture building.
This photo takes a somewhat unorthodox appearance due to the way that my phone locked onto its target. I was attempting to shoot a panoramic image of the Morris Sokol building, and then the fire truck entered the frame while I was panning. The phone immediately forgot about the building, and locked onto the fire truck as it went through the scene, creating this somewhat stretched-out panorama. I knew that the shot would likely be ruined as soon as I noticed the fire truck coming, but attempted to finish the shot anyway in hopes that I would complete it before the fire truck arrived, but it was not to be. Instead, I got this funny little photography blooper.
