Judgement time.

1st place
Jerry-R: Hydro electric? I suppose main reason for my decision to award it the winner is that it's such an awesome example of technology.

2nd place
dilorenzo's saw. I like the choice of B&W for this old saw. I wonder how many hours or miles of timber it has cut.

3rd place
TerryPink's steam punk. I love looking at all the bits and pieces. Is that a fork on his apron?

OldCrow: Such an important piece of technology for many, for so long.

LtDave: Curious about that light. It looks kinda cottage industry?

Cuypers1807: Nice. That must have been a huge investment for someone when new.

Eidelweiss: Such a contrast, sitting there quietly. I'm sure it might quite a noise when in use.

RDWP: I'm confused. But that's normal, it a Tardis!

So it's over to Jerry for #729.

PM sent to Jerry-R for reminder of his win.

Congrats to the winners! Good topic and great variety of responses.

(Re Police Box: sorry - if I'd snapped it a moment before I would have gotten the whole box. Just a bit too late again
But Terry's steampunk would probably feel at home inside.)

I sincerely apologize for being remiss in checking this. Thanks so much for the win. That photo was taken inside Hoover Dam.

Good challenge Dave. Thanks for 2nd place and congrats to Jerry
