I got to 'stoke' the firebox of a steam thresher this past fall. While I had the door to the firebox open, and seeing a shot, I took this photograph of the fire inside. It turned out better than I had hoped and thus I thought it might be of some interest to the members here. I don't think we have a section yet for 'firebox shots' but perhaps in time . . . as such I put it in, 'Other.'

Great way to keep warm in the winter. Trouble is you do your threshing at the end of summer not so cool. :lol: :lol: Nice shot.

Thank you guys . . . the fire has a silly 3D texture to it. I have to stop looking at it.

I love it! Very intense color/contrast between the fires and the cast iron!

I take it that the G5 doesn't have a plastic body.....

Wonderful fire shot!

I'd like to see more of that steam thresher...
The other shot you posted showing it was pretty small, but gave a nice idea how it looks.

Best regards,
Andy

Yep the fire of HE double hockey sticks, or as you spell it . . . same difference. I do have a bunch of shots of this steam engine so I will try to work some up and post for those interested in such fare. They are all from my G2 and or G5 but still serviceable photographs.

I though this such an odd ball shot that it would get the snide . . . lol, just goes to show what I know about photography.
