This steam driven fire pump crew put on a great demo last Sunday at Hatfield House.

Graham,

That is a fantastic display of equipment, uniforms and faces, all well-photographed.  Thanks for preserving it all in images for us.

Agree with Dennis, a beautiful display of equipment and restoration. The colors stand out in the soft light.

Graham,

Splendid series of shots. Those images are magnetic and draw my eyes in to examine closely the expressive detail in the faces and and myriad metallic surfaces and shapes.

Thanks for brightening up a rainy day.

I'm glad that you all enjoyed these - I will go thru' this folder again tonight to see if I have a shot of the entire pump - I think there is one but the pump is surrounded by spectators.  Watch this space.
