ok, I realise there are only so many photographs one can post of a single threshing set, but the weather today was so different to that when Benny Boy took his, I thought I'd post a couple from today. 1/11/2015.









Two miracles of engineering....


Some of the characters involved today...
















If anyone can put names to faces, please feel free. If anyone wants any of the photographs, send me your details and which one you'd like and I'll send one to you. Thanks to everyone involved today for working for our pleasure, hope you enjoyed it too.

Colin, a cracking set of photos, they are all very good indeed. I absolutely love the second and third pictures though – they are so moody and atmospheric, superb stuff! I remember many years ago constructive criticism regarding my artwork – I was told to create depth in a picture I should simply imagine the background as if seeing it through fog or mist. No dark tones, muted colours with less and less detail as things get further away – basically what you have here. Your studies of people are excellent too, you have really captured the character and thoughts of the individuals. The two gents talking while sitting on the top of the threshing machine - a wonderful photo. I find myself wanting to know what they are discussing!

Hi Colin,
Great atmosphere, brilliant photos. The differance is amazing to the golden shunshine we had on our visit 24 hours earlier!
I am not a Fowler man however, The Pride Of Wye is a cracking engine, looks just right. It was also a pleasure to meet Tom Henderson for the first time.
