I hear you wondering… what the heck is a Johnny Pump. It’s the nickname the New York Fire Brigade gave to the hydrants in the street. It’s named after it’s inventor John Giraud. Fire hydrants, or Johnny pumps; I see them every day while driving to my work. Not only in the hills where I live, but also in town.

They are all the same, although, after a better look, they are not. A great reason to start documenting them. I start the series with the one with which I’m every time wondering who and why he has this colour …

The first image was taken one week earlier with the dp2q; the others after snowfall with the dp0q.
