In the quiet surrounds of the Millford Museum, these relics from the past have found a peaceful end. The traction engine on the left would have been used to haul heavy loads or to act as a power source for theshing or other rural activities. The ore crusher on the right would have most likely earned its life extracting gold.

Agricultural heritage Frank! If you took only one image, it was worth the visit of the museum, as it's a very fine one. Thanks for the info too.

Very interesting shot, Frank. You almost make that old stuff look showroom ready. I like the colorful trees in the shot too.

Old steam engines were very powerful, Frank.
We have Steam Engines on display at various festivals.
Good, warm shot.

Nice composition of the scene and capture of the old machinery, Frank. Nice warm colour tones in the photo. Best of luck in the contest.
