This showman's engine is distinguished by a full-length canopy…A dynamo which is covered in a green canvas on this machine is mounted in front of the chimney… The dynamo was used to generate electricity to illuminate and power various fairground rides….Please enjoy.

I liked this one so much I sent it to the art council. Some of the best colors and composition I have seen in awhile.

Another good post Mick. These are real head turners. The owners are passionate in their attention to detail.

OOOO I have seen this one in the flesh so to speak! It was at the extravanganza. Wonderful shot Mick, I love the way you have the smoke melding into the clouds like that.
